About Festa dell'Agricoltore

Spanning July and August, Plodio celebrates the farming world with the Festa dell'Agricoltore: one of the longest-running events in the Val Bormida of Savona. Food stalls, musical evenings, and the highly anticipated tractor skills competition mark ten days of festivities organised by the Pro Loco, amidst the flavours and traditions of the Savona hinterland.

The festival of the farming world

In Plodio, a small municipality in the Val Bormida in the province of Savona, the Festa dell'Agricoltore is the summer event par excellence. Organised by the Pro Loco of Plodio, the event has celebrated the agricultural and peasant tradition of the area for decades, attracting visitors from all over the valley.

Taste, music, and tractors

The festival unfolds over several evenings with food stalls and musical entertainment; Sundays also include lunch service. Among the most characteristic events is the tractor skills competition, an authentic attraction that recalls the town's connection with fieldwork.

Heart of the Val Bormida

The Festa dell'Agricoltore is a landmark of the summer in the Savona hinterland: a genuine village festival, capable of preserving the community spirit of peasant celebrations and enhancing the products and cuisine of the Val Bormida.
