About Cipolla Bianca Isernia

The Festa della Cipolla Bianca di Isernia is the modern food and wine festival that celebrates the symbolic product of the Isernia plain. With food stands, typical products, live music, and family activities, the event enlivens the historic center of the Molise capital, promoting the white onion of Isernia in a culinary and convivial context.

A tribute to the white onion

The Festa della Cipolla Bianca di Isernia is the food and wine festival that, in the historic center of the capital of Molise, celebrates the most representative agricultural product of the territory: the white onion of Isernia, with its sweet flavor and flattened bulb. A recent but already very popular event, it complements the historic Onion Fair by offering a more contemporary and culinary interpretation.

Flavors and conviviality

The program revolves around food stands offering typical dishes and tastings based on white onion, accompanied by local products. Culinary contests and moments dedicated to promoting the product, in collaboration with local producers and food and wine businesses, are also featured.

Music and families in the historic center

The festival is marked by live music and activities designed for children and families, transforming the squares of Isernia's center into a meeting place. It is organized by the Comitato Centro Storico Isernia (Isernia Historic Center Committee) and confirms itself year after year as one of the most vibrant events of the Isernian summer, capable of combining taste, tradition, and entertainment.
