A night of wine, fine taste, and music in the historic center of Pomarance
Divino Calice is the major food and wine event that brings the historic center of Pomarance, in the province of Pisa, to life every summer in the heart of the Val di Cecina. For one night, the village streets, squares, and surrounding areas turn into a sprawling tasting itinerary, where wine becomes the common thread of a celebration that blends flavors, music, and conviviality. The event is promoted and organized by the Pro Loco Pomarance, which has been hosting it for years as one of the most beloved highlights of the local summer calendar.
The heart of Divino Calice is the tasting trail. At the various refreshment points set up among the squares and alleys of the historic center, visitors can sample some of the best wine selections from the region, accompanied by traditional local products. With a wine glass and their itinerary in hand, guests stroll from one point of the village to another, discovering labels and specialties in a relaxed and festive atmosphere.
The evening is about more than just wine. Accompanying the tastings are roving musicians, who fill the streets with sound, and street performers who bring corners and squares to life with their acts. Street food and live entertainment round out a program designed to engage audiences of all ages.
Divino Calice also reserves space for the little ones, with a dedicated children's area that makes the evening suitable for the whole family. The event is further enhanced by a photography exhibition and the opening of the city museums, a precious opportunity to discover or rediscover the cultural heritage of Pomarance during the festival.
A municipality in the province of Pisa, in Tuscany, Pomarance is one of the main hubs of the Val di Cecina, a land of hills, medieval villages, and the unmistakable geothermal landscape of nearby Larderello and the Valle del Diavolo. Its historic center, with its palaces, churches, and picturesque views, offers the ideal setting for an event that fuses gastronomy, culture, and popular tradition. Divino Calice thus represents not only a wine festival but also an opportunity to experience the village and its territory on a warm summer evening.
The 2026 edition of Divino Calice, the nineteenth, will be held on Thursday, August 6, 2026 from 6:00 PM to 11:30 PM in the historic center of Pomarance. Promoted by the Pro Loco, the evening offers a tasting trail of wines and local products at refreshment points set up between Piazza de Larderel, the squares, and the streets of the village.
Accompanying the tastings will be roving music, street food, street performers, and shows, as well as a dedicated children's area, a photography exhibition, and the opening of the city museums. An event suitable for the whole family, in the heart of the Val di Cecina.
