About Festa del Radicchio Variegato IGP

The Festa del Radicchio Variegato di Castelfranco Veneto IGP celebrates the symbolic product of the territory, the so-called "Winter Flower", in the heart of the walled city in the province of Treviso. Included in the Fiori d'Inverno (Winter Flowers) review, it features an exhibition of producers, an award for the best radicchio, a dedicated exhibition, guided tours of the historic center, and tastings of radicchio-based dishes. A food and wine event that showcases one of the most precious Venetian excellences.

The Winter Flower of Castelfranco

The Festa del Radicchio Variegato di Castelfranco Veneto IGP is dedicated to one of the most precious products of the Marca trevigiana: the variegated radicchio, nicknamed the "Winter Flower" for its rose-like shape and its cream-white, green, and red mottled colors. The festival is held in the heart of the walled city, in the province of Treviso.

Producers, Exhibition, and Award Ceremony

The event is part of the Fiori d'Inverno (Winter Flowers) review and revolves around the exhibition of producers and the award ceremony for the best Radicchio Variegato IGP, which takes place between the Clock Tower and the Duomo. A dedicated exhibition, set up in the Council Hall of the Municipality, and guided tours of the historic center complete the product's valorization.

Tastings and Tradition

During the days, it is possible to taste radicchio-based dishes thanks to the collaboration of restaurateurs and the Protection Consortium. The festival is organized by the Pro Loco of Castelfranco Veneto together with the Consorzio Radicchio Variegato, in an event that combines gastronomy, culture, and local identity.
