Sellano celebrates the bond with the land and autumn's fruits through food and wine, music, and foliage
The Campaign and Thanksgiving Festival is the autumn event in Sellano, a small village in the Valnerina in the province of Perugia. Rooted in rural culture and local folklore, the event celebrates the strong bond that the people of Sellano have with their territory and gives thanks for the harvest and the season's products, following an ancient peasant tradition.
The program offers a rich calendar of activities related to the world of the countryside: from food and wine to outdoor activities, from music to entertainment for the whole family, with workshops, exhibitions, and shows. The festival tables feature local specialties — cheeses, polenta, arrosticini, chestnuts — the stars of the two days of celebration.
The historic center of Sellano, enveloped in the warm colors of the autumn foliage, serves as the backdrop. The event, organized by the Pro Loco of Sellano together with the National Union of Pro Loco of Italy, the Municipality, and the Lumi Cultural Association as part of the Valnerina Green project, is also an opportunity to discover an authentic, lesser-known corner of Umbria.
For 2026, the Campaign and Thanksgiving Festival is expected in Sellano on the last weekend of October, following the established pattern of the event organized by the Pro Loco. Two days dedicated to the world of the countryside, featuring food and wine, outdoor activities, music, workshops, and entertainment for the whole family, set against the backdrop of the historic center enveloped in the colors of autumn foliage. The precise dates and detailed program will be announced by the organizers closer to the event.
The detailed program for the 2026 edition will be published by the Pro Loco of Sellano in the weeks preceding the event. The festival traditionally offers: stands and tastings of typical products (cheeses, polenta, arrosticini, chestnuts), outdoor activities in the area, concerts and music, workshops and entertainment for families, exhibitions related to rural culture.
By car: Sellano can be reached from the SS320 of Cascia, in the heart of Valnerina, in the province of Perugia. Parking is available near the historic center.
