Frattina's big summer festival, with food and dancing
There is a corner of Friuli, on the border with Veneto, where every summer the village gathers for a big festival: it is Frattina, a hamlet of Pravisdomini, in the province of Pordenone. Here the Festa tra il Verde reaches its 45th edition in 2026, confirming itself as one of the longest-running and most attended festivals in the Bassa pordenonese area. The name is not accidental: the festival takes place in the park adjacent to the church of Frattina, a green setting that sets the convivial tone for the entire event.
The strong point of the Festa tra il Verde are the themed menus that alternate night after night: spit-roast, eel, paella, and then grilled meats, gnocchi, calamari, side dishes, and homemade desserts. A varied and abundant gastronomic offer that invites you to return more than once during the ten days of the festival, to taste every specialty.
The evenings are marked by music: dance orchestras for lovers of ballroom dancing and younger bands — including tribute bands and party bands — to engage all generations. The evening program is complemented by the traditional sporting events that accompany the festival, such as the Sunday fun run and the cycling tour, opportunities to discover the countryside around Frattina.
Behind the event is the work of the Pro Loco Frattina, which with the support of the Municipality of Pravisdomini sets up kitchens, stands, and a stage for over a week of festivities. It is an example of how a small rural community can transform summer into a great moment of gathering, capable of attracting visitors from all over the Friuli and Veneto region.
For 2026, the Festa tra il Verde celebrates its 45th edition. Based on previous years, the event takes place straddling late June and early July in the park adjacent to the Frattina church, with the usual formula of evening themed menus, dancing, and sports events. The precise dates will be announced by Pro Loco Frattina.
The detailed program for the 2026 edition will be published in the coming weeks by Pro Loco Frattina. Based on recent editions, the structure includes the opening of gastronomic stands every evening with themed menus (spit-roast, eel, paella, grilled meats, gnocchi, calamari, and desserts) followed by musical entertainment with dance orchestras and bands for younger audiences. On weekends, the fun run and the cycling tour are usually added. It is advisable to check the updated calendar with Pro Loco Frattina.
