About Breeders' Festival

The Breeders' Festival is the annual event hosted by the Regional Breeders' Association of Piedmont (A.R.A.P.) to honor the regional livestock sector. Every March, the MITHO nightclub in Piobesi Torinese, a town in the province of Turin, welcomes member farmers for a convivial evening featuring awards, a gala dinner, and live music. It is a festive occasion that highlights the dedication, professionalism, and traditions of those working daily in the stables and pastures of Piedmont.

The Piedmontese Breeders' Celebration

The Breeders' Festival is the annual gathering that brings the Piedmontese livestock community together in Piobesi Torinese every March. Organized by A.R.A.P. - Regional Breeders' Association of Piedmont, the event takes place at the MITHO Nightclub, located at Via Duccio Galimberti 81, and is a highly anticipated date for the agricultural sector across the province of Turin and the entire region.

An Evening of Awards and Conviviality

The heart of the festival is the breeders' awards ceremony, an official recognition of the hard work, dedication, and achievements of the associated livestock farms. It is a moment for the farming community to come together and celebrate the milestones of a year's work, often defined by sacrifices and passion passed down through generations.

The awards are followed by a convivial dinner that brings together members, families, and guests around the table in a spirit of friendship and exchange. Gastronomy always plays a leading role, with carefully curated menus that showcase the finest products of the Piedmontese territory.

Live Music

The evening is brought to life by the live music of Gianni Valfusi, with a repertoire ranging from traditional ballroom dance music to the disco hits of the 70s, 80s, and 90s. After dinner, the dance floor at the MITHO nightclub transforms into a vibrant space for dancing and entertainment that keeps guests going until late at night.

An Event for the Livestock Community

The Breeders' Festival is an event reserved for A.R.A.P. member farmers and their guests; invitations are distributed through the Association's offices. More than just a party, it is an opportunity to strengthen the bonds of a professional community that represents one of the hallmarks of Piedmontese agriculture, from beef cattle breeds like the Piedmontese to high-quality dairy production.

Piobesi Torinese and the Local Area

The event is held in Piobesi Torinese, a small town on the plains southwest of Turin, in Piedmont. The choice of the MITHO nightclub as the recurring venue confirms the site's suitability for hosting major events for the agricultural world and the local community at large.
