CUNZ! Gargano Food Fest

CUNZ! 2025 — the third edition

From May 23 to 25, 2025, Rignano Garganico celebrated the 3rd edition of the CUNZ! Gargano Food Fest, with the support of the Puglia Region, over 200 volunteers, and more than 80 local agri-food companies. Mornings were dedicated to workshops and school visits, while in the afternoon, the taste trail opened to the public.

The musical lineup featured Reverendo Podolico, Orchestra Mancina, Samen Mi Casa & Podolik Band, Michele Longo Band, a DJ set with Le Donatella, and a live broadcast by Radio Selene. The programme was rich in workshops—ceramics, bread-making, fresh pasta, traditional desserts, experimental archaeology—and excursions to Grotta Paglicci, the Dolmen La Masecca, and other Gargano landmarks. A children's area completed the offerings for families, and a digital volume dedicated to the ghosts, hags, and goblins of the promontory was distributed during the event.
