Three evenings dedicated to the arrosticino

The 2025 Arrosticino Festival of San Vito Chietino was held from August 22nd to 24th, every evening from 8:00 PM to 11:00 PM, in Largo Don Giuseppe Argentieri in Marina di San Vito, in front of the Santa Maria del Porto Parish. At the heart of the festival, as per tradition, was the arrosticino, the mutton skewer cooked over charcoal, served together with typical side dishes, homemade bread, desserts, and Montepulciano d'Abruzzo wine.

The evenings alternated between food stalls, music, and folk performances in a village atmosphere, confirming the festival as one of the most anticipated events of the San Vito summer on the Costa dei Trabocchi. The event was organized by the municipal administration of San Vito Chietino together with the Santa Maria del Porto Parish.
