The pork fegatello in celebration on the eve of Ferragosto, in Limosano
The Fegatello Festival is the gastronomic feast that enlivens Limosano every August 14th, a town in the province of Campobasso in the Biferno valley. The star is the pork fegatello, a typical product of the Molisan peasant tradition, prepared and enjoyed according to local recipes.
The festival takes place on the eve of Ferragosto and kicks off the most intense period of the Limosano summer, which continues with the patronal feast of San Ludovico (August 19th) and the feast of San Donato. It is an event that combines gastronomy, conviviality, and tradition, attracting residents, visitors, and former Limosano residents back to the village.
Among the festival stands and the streets of the historic centre perched on the tuff hill, the Fegatello Festival tells the gastronomic story of a village that makes traditional cuisine one of its distinctive features.
Even in 2026, Limosano dedicates August 14th to the Fegatello Festival, a gastronomic event preceding the patronal feast of San Ludovico. The event promotes pork fegatello, prepared according to the traditional peasant recipes of the Biferno valley, with food stands and conviviality in the historic centre of the village in the province of Campobasso.
