About Arrosticini a Tutta Birra
The summer festival in the Pine Forest
Arrosticini a Tutta Birra is one of the most cherished summer events in Montefranco, a small village in the Valnerina valley, Terni province. A traditional early summer gathering, it takes place in the Municipal Pine Forest, a cool and shady natural setting ideal for outdoor evenings.
Arrosticini and beer take centre stage
The absolute stars are the sheep arrosticini, the grilled skewers of Apennine tradition, paired with beer. Every evening, the festival is accompanied by live music, creating a convivial atmosphere that draws in locals and visitors from the valley. In case of bad weather, you can eat indoors.
A festival with a charitable heart too
Arrosticini a Tutta Birra also has a charitable side: a portion of the proceeds from some evenings goes to a fundraiser for Madagascar, managed by the association Gli Amici di Lucia, giving the festival a value that goes beyond simple entertainment.
Arrosticini a Tutta Birra â edition 2026
