Edition 2025 — Onion Festival

The 2025 edition of the Cannara Onion Festival, the 43rd, took place in September in the historic centre with the six food stands open every evening and a rich programme of music, dance, sports, comedy shows, and workshops for children. The event was spread over two long weekends in the month, confirming itself as one of Umbria's most beloved festivals.

The 43rd edition of the Cannara Onion Festival took place in September 2025, spread over two weeks (from September 2nd to 7th and September 9th to 14th). In the historic centre, the six food stands animated the festival with their onion-based menus, from appetisers to desserts.

Alongside the food, the programme offered musical events, dance shows, sporting events, comedy shows, cultural appointments, and workshops for children. The festival reaffirmed Cannara's role, in the province of Perugia, as the Umbrian capital of the onion, blending rural tradition with a grand popular festival.
