About Festa dell'Orzo
The Festa dell'Orzo in Pedavena
The Festa dell'Orzo e della Birra Dolomiti takes place at the Fabbrica di Pedavena, in Feltrino, province of Belluno, one of Italy's most fascinating historic breweries. The event celebrates the deep connection between local agriculture and the brewing production that has characterized the town for over a century.
The Barley Handover
A symbolic moment of the festival is the handover of the new barley harvest by local growers, who entrust it to the master brewers for the production of Birra Dolomiti, a zero-kilometer beer made with Alpine water and barley cultivated by local farmers and small producers.
Tours, Tastings, and Music
The program includes guided tours of the plant (by reservation), tasting sessions, food stalls, folk music, an artisan market, a parade of historic tractors, and family-friendly activities. Amidst the aroma of barley and the flavors of beer, the festival is one of the best opportunities to discover the brewing culture of Pedavena and the Dolomitic Veneto region.
