The buffalo mozzarella celebration at Parco delle Stelle in Bomarzo
This edition has not been confirmed by the organiser to date. We recommend checking before going.
The Buffalo Mozzarella Festival, which has also been presented under the name Sapori di Bufala, is one of the most cherished summer events in Bomarzo, a small town in the province of Viterbo, in northern Lazio. The event takes place at the Parco delle Stelle, in the Pinetti area, along the Bomarzese provincial road: an open-air green space that hosts various local food festivals throughout the summer.
The heart of the festival is buffalo mozzarella, the iconic product of central-southern Italian dairy tradition, served here with a local, home-style twist. Alongside the mozzarella, the stalls offer grilled meats and dishes from the rural Tuscia cuisine, in a simple and genuine menu designed for the conviviality of summer evenings.
The Buffalo Mozzarella Festival is about more than just food: the evenings are enlivened by live music and dancing, following the classic formula of Lazio village festivals. The stalls typically open in the evening, and the relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere makes the event perfect for families, groups of friends, and visitors passing through the area.
Attending the festival is also a great opportunity to discover Bomarzo, a village world-famous for its Park of the Monsters (the 16th-century Sacred Wood), and more generally the Tuscia Viterbese, a land of festivals, medieval villages, nature, and ancient traditions. The Lazio region maintains a rich calendar of food and wine events in this area, renewing the bond between the community and local products year after year.
With its simple and straightforward atmosphere, the Buffalo Mozzarella Festival perfectly embodies the spirit of the Tuscia festivals: good food, hospitality, and the joy of being together. For updated dates and programs, it is always advisable to check the organizers' announcements in the weeks leading up to the event.
The Buffalo Mozzarella Festival (Sapori di Bufala) is expected to return in the summer of 2026 at the Parco delle Stelle in Bomarzo, in the province of Viterbo. As of now, the official dates and detailed program have not yet been published.
