About Festa della Vendemmia

Every October, Penna in Teverina celebrates the grape harvest with one of the most heartfelt sagre (traditional festivals) in the Amerino area: the Festa della Vendemmia. Featuring a market fair, a food stand, free tastings of wine, must, and typical products, shows, and musical evenings, the village in the province of Terni celebrates the fruits of the earth and conviviality, with the characteristic gastronomic 'serpentone' (long procession) winding through the streets of the historic center.

The festival of the fruits of the earth

The Festa della Vendemmia in Penna in Teverina, in the province of Terni, is an autumn sagra (traditional festival) with a long tradition, organized by the Pro Loco (local tourism board) and dedicated to celebrating the harvest. It traditionally takes place on the first weekend of October and enlivens the historic center of the Amerino village with three days of celebration.

Between market, wine, and gastronomy

The program combines a market fair, a covered food stand, free tastings of wine, must, grapes, bread, and typical products, art exhibitions, band gatherings, dance performances, and musical evenings with DJ sets. A particularly anticipated event is the gastronomic 'serpentone' (long procession), which winds through the streets of the historic center with tastings and conviviality.

A village tradition

The Festa della Vendemmia is an identity-defining moment for Penna in Teverina and the entire Amerino community: beyond the food and wine aspect, it offers an opportunity to discover an authentic village in the lower Tiber valley, with shuttle service and parking to facilitate visitor access.
