Expo Valle Stura
The great fair of the Genoese hinterland: livestock, crafts, gastronomy and historic train
About Expo Valle Stura
The Valle Stura Fair
Expo Valle Stura is the great market fair of Rossiglione, a town in the upper Valle Stura in the Metropolitan City of Genoa. For decades, it has represented the autumn event that brings together producers, breeders, artisans, and tourism operators from the valley, in an event that combines economy, tradition, and village celebration.
Livestock, crafts, and flavors
The historic heart of the fair is the livestock exhibition, with the display of farm animals from the valley, alongside:
- Market fair with typical products and local crafts;
- Gastronomic stands with the traditional dishes of the Ligurian mountains;
- the arrival of the historic train, which brings visitors from Genoa along the scenic Valle Stura line;
- entertainment, music, and activities for families.
Two weekends of celebration
The event traditionally takes place on the last weekend of September and the first of October, often combined with the Chestnut Festival, creating a long period of celebration that enhances the flavors and landscapes of the Beigua Regional Natural Park and a border territory between Liguria and Piedmont.

For 2026, the fair confirms its traditional placement, straddling the last weekend of September and the first of October. The event, organized by the Pro Loco of Rossiglione, features the livestock exhibition, the market fair, gastronomy, and the historic train.
