Castagna Day | Festa d'Autunno

20th Castagna Day in Osimo

The 2025 edition of the Festa d'Autunno in Osimo celebrated the twentieth anniversary of the Castagna Day, scheduled from Friday 24 to Sunday 26 October 2025. The focal point of the event was Piazza Boccolino, with the route extending throughout the historic centre with roasted chestnuts, mulled wine, sandwiches, chestnut cake, beer, and wine.

The evenings were enlivened by live music from 9:30 PM: the folk group Vincanto on Friday, Acqua Chiara on Saturday, and a tribute to Elisa on Sunday. The mycology exhibition was open at the Bottega del Mondo, while dining on Saturday and Sunday was held in the evocative Cloister of San Francesco. Completing the programme were the wheel of fortune, face painting, soap bubble shows, and a folk dance workshop, as well as the market of typical products and the exhibition of wild herbs. The event was organised by the Municipality of Osimo together with ASSO and the Società Operaia di Mutuo Soccorso.
