The third traditional Aosta Valley craft fair, at the foot of the Matterhorn
The Fiera dell'Artigianato Valdostano di Tradizione in Antey-Saint-André, in the province of Aosta, is considered the third most important fair in the Aosta Valley dedicated to traditional craftsmanship, after the renowned Fiera di Sant'Orso in Aosta and the one in Donnas. It takes place in the heart of the village, in the characteristic Bourg district, with the unmistakable silhouette of the Matterhorn in the background.
Along the stalls, visitors can admire and purchase the works of Aosta Valley artisans: wood sculpture, carving, and turning, weaving, soapstone, iron, and copper work. These are the objects that have accompanied the daily lives and traditions of the region's alpine communities for centuries, passed down from generation to generation and still produced by hand today.
The fair is not just a market but also an occasion for gathering: local gastronomic flavors and traditional Aosta Valley music intertwine among the stalls, in a day that celebrates the bond between mountain communities and their heritage.
The 2026 edition of the Fiera dell'Artigianato Valdostano di Tradizione takes place on Sunday, August 9, 2026, from 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM, in the Bourg district of Antey-Saint-André. Artisans from the region will exhibit works of wood sculpture, carving, and turning, weaving, soapstone, iron, and copper work.
The fair, third in importance in the Aosta Valley after Aosta and Donnas, confirms itself as one of the most significant showcases of traditional alpine crafts, complemented by the flavors of local gastronomy and regional music.
Detailed program will be published on the Antey-Saint-André Municipality's channels closer to the event.
