The great food and wine showcase of Molise in the village of Scapoli
In Scapoli (province of Isernia), famous as the capital of the bagpipe ('zampogna'), the summer calendar also includes a highly anticipated food and wine event: the Festival dei Sapori Molisani, known as the Sagra delle Sagre. The event takes place in the first ten days of August and transforms the historic center of the village into a grand showcase of the region's flavors.
Founded in 2009 to bring together and promote the Pro Loco associations of the province of Isernia, the festival has also had an international spotlight: in 2010, Molise's specialties, and in particular the 'raviolo scapolese', were presented at the European Parliament in Brussels. Since then, the event has grown as a moment for promoting typical products and the gastronomic identity of Molise.
The event takes place in the evening in the heart of the village: stands and tastings offer typical dishes and Molise wines, from handmade pasta to products from the local Pro Loco associations. An opportunity to discover the cuisine of the province of Isernia in a convivial atmosphere, just a short walk from the Bagpipe Museum.
For 2026 too, the historic center of Scapoli is preparing to host the Festival dei Sapori Molisani, the Sagra delle Sagre, in the first ten days of August. The evening offers stands and tastings featuring the famous 'raviolo scapolese', typical dishes, and regional wines.
The exact date and program for the 2026 edition will be announced by the organizers closer to the event.
The definitive date and detailed program for the 2026 edition will be announced by the organizers (Pro Loco and Municipality) in the preceding weeks.
