Festa di San Giovanni

The village festival

There are festivals that are the beating heart of a community, and the Festa di San Giovanni in Moimacco is one of them. For two weekends in June, this village in the Cividalese area transforms: the food stalls light up, the evenings fill with music, and the entire village comes together around the patronal festival. The Pro Moimacco organizes everything, taking care of every detail with the dedication typical of Friulian pro loco associations.

Between food, beer, and dancing

The heart of the festival is the food: typical local dishes served on ceramic plates and steel cutlery, with a focus on sustainability, across several food stalls. There's also a good selection of craft beers and, of course, local wine. Every evening, the stage hosts dancing evenings with DJ sets and live music, because here, the dancing goes on late.

The hamlets in competition

The most distinctive feature of the Festa di San Giovanni are the sports tournaments that liven up the two weekends: the eight hamlets of the municipality compete in five-a-side football and other disciplines, in a friendly competition that fuels local pride and participation from all ages. It's Moimacco's way of keeping the community alive, while having fun.

A stone's throw from Cividale

Moimacco is located on the plains, a few kilometers from Cividale del Friuli, a Lombard jewel and UNESCO World Heritage site. A perfect location for those who want to combine the authenticity of a village festival with a day exploring the beauties of the Cividalese area and the great wines of the Colli Orientali del Friuli.
