A day of country dancing, horseback riding, and arrosticini in Villamagna
This edition has not been confirmed by the organiser to date. We recommend checking before going.
Every autumn, the Cowboys a Cavallo center, located along the Strada Statale 263 in Villamagna, in the province of Chieti, transforms into a little corner of the Abruzzese Far West. The Autumn Country Festival, organized by the West Family, offers a day filled with music, dancing, and great company, set against the backdrop of the hills sloping down toward the Trabocchi Coast.
The heart of the event is country dancing: throughout the day, free lessons open to everyone are held, even for beginners who have never tried country-western steps before. Music accompanies the entire festival, creating a cheerful and informal atmosphere where you can simply let yourself go to the rhythm or watch the more experienced dancers.
The format is typical of local village festivals: you bring your own food, drinks, and charcoal, as there are no sales on-site, and spend the day relaxing between a barbecue and a dance. It is a convivial occasion designed especially for families and those who love animals and the outdoors.
Villamagna is a small hillside town in the Chieti hinterland, in Abruzzo, known for its wine production and the agricultural landscape surrounding the village. The Autumn Country Festival is part of the calendar of events that the Cowboys a Cavallo center organizes throughout the year, including spring, summer, and autumn editions, becoming a small landmark for country and equestrian enthusiasts in the area.
The 2026 autumn edition of the Cowboys a Cavallo Country Festival in Villamagna does not yet have an official date. In previous years, the event took place towards the end of October; confirmation of dates and the program is expected in the weeks leading up to the event, via the center's social media channels. The stables remain active in 2026, with the spring edition on April 25th.
The Cowboys a Cavallo center is located along the Strada Statale 263 of Val di Foro, in the territory of Villamagna (CH). By car, it is easily accessible from the Chieti motorway exit (A25) or from the coast via Francavilla al Mare.
Paid admission (around 5 euros in recent editions). Horseback rides are not included in the ticket. Food, drinks, and charcoal are not sold on-site: it is best to bring your own arrosticini, meat, drinks, and everything needed for the barbecue. Tables and benches are available for participants.
