About Arrosticini and Beer Festival

In Montefranco, a village in the Valnerina valley, province of Terni, Arrosticini a Tutta Birra is the early summer event dedicated to sheep arrosticini and beer. In the charming Municipal Pine Grove, for over two weeks, you can enjoy the famous skewers accompanied by live music every evening. Part of the initiative supports a charity fundraiser for Madagascar, managed by the association Gli Amici di Lucia.

The Summer Festival in the Pine Grove

Arrosticini a Tutta Birra is one of the most cherished summer events in Montefranco, a small village in the Valnerina valley, province of Terni. A traditional early summer gathering, it takes place in the Municipal Pine Grove, a cool and shady natural setting ideal for outdoor evenings.

Arrosticini and Beer Take Center Stage

The absolute stars are the sheep arrosticini, the traditional Apennine skewers cooked over embers, paired with beer. Every evening, the festival is accompanied by live music, creating a convivial atmosphere that attracts locals and visitors from the valley. In case of bad weather, you can eat indoors.

A Festival with a Heart

Arrosticini a Tutta Birra also has a charitable side: part 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.
