Wine tasting under the stars at Conegliano Castle
Chalices of Stars is the great summer festival of Italian wine promoted by the National Association of Wine Cities and the Wine Tourism Movement. In Conegliano, in the province of Treviso, the event chooses an exceptional setting: the Castle overlooking the city, reachable along the path of the ancient walls that climb from Piazza Cima to the fortress.
The event offers a tasting journey that brings together dozens of local wineries, featuring wines from Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore DOCG and Piave, accompanied by local products from the stands. A wine walk at sunset, between the castle walls and the view of the UNESCO World Heritage Prosecco hills.
The event combines wine tasting with the opening of the castle museum and the opportunity to discover the historic sites on the hill, from the small church of Madonna della Neve to the ancient fortifications. A free shuttle bus service usually connects Piazza Cima to the castle, making access easy. Conegliano is also the Italian Wine City 2026-2027, an award that further enhances the wine events in the area.
The national event Chalices of Stars returns every summer during the nights of San Lorenzo. In Conegliano, the stop traditionally takes place at the Castle, with tastings from Conegliano Valdobbiadene and Piave wineries amidst the ancient walls.
At the time of writing, the precise date and program for the 2026 edition have not yet been officially announced. Furthermore, 2026 is a special year for the city, designated Italian Wine City 2026-2027: it is advisable to consult the official event channels in the weeks preceding the event.
Program coming soon. The date and list of participating wineries for the 2026 edition of Chalices of Stars at Conegliano Castle will be announced by the Association of Wine Cities and the Wine Tourism Movement. The established format includes, in the evening, the tasting journey within the castle walls with regional wines and local products, the opening of the museum, and the free shuttle bus from Piazza Cima.
Conegliano is served by the train station (Venice-Udine line) and the A27 motorway (Conegliano exit). The Castle can be reached on foot from the center along the path of the ancient walls; a free shuttle bus is usually active from Piazza Cima.
