Five days of forest flavors in the Umbrian village
The Festa del Cinghiale (Wild Boar Festival) of Montegabbione is dedicated to the undisputed protagonist of Umbrian forest cuisine: wild boar, served in numerous preparations ranging from pasta sauces to stews and traditional main courses. Alongside the signature dish, there are plenty of other succulent local dishes, in a gastronomic journey that tells the deep connection between the village and its hilly, wooded territory.
Montegabbione, in the province of Terni, is a charming village nestled in the Umbrian greenery, halfway between the Orvieto area and Valdichiana. The festival is also an opportunity to discover the town, its streets, and its views, in a convivial and welcoming atmosphere that is the true heart of the event.
The evenings of the Festa del Cinghiale combine good food with music and entertainment, with a program designed for families and visitors of all ages. The event is organized by the Pro Loco of Montegabbione and is one of the most anticipated summer events in the area.
From July 15 to 19, 2026, Montegabbione hosts the 16th edition of the Festa del Cinghiale. For five days, from Wednesday to Sunday, food stands will offer wild boar in numerous preparations and many other succulent local traditional dishes.
The event, organized by the Pro Loco of Montegabbione, is also an invitation to discover this extraordinary village nestled in the Umbrian greenery, with evenings enlivened by music and entertainment. The detailed program will be released by the organizers in the weeks preceding the festival.
