About Fiesta dal Pan

The Fiesta dal Pan, dal Formadi e dal Salam is the festival that celebrates artisanal bread, cheeses, and salamis from Carnia in Ampezzo. In Piazza Zona Libera della Carnia, ovens are lit, and stands come alive with tastings, wine and craft beer, live folk music, workshops for children, and bread-making and cheesemaking demonstrations, all in a weekend of taste and conviviality.

Bread, the heart of the festival

In Ampezzo, in Carnia, there is a weekend when Piazza Zona Libera della Carnia smells of freshly baked bread. It is the Fiesta dal Pan, dal Formadi e dal Salam, the festival celebrating three symbolic products of the Friulian mountains: artisanal bread, cheeses, and salamis of the Carnic tradition, and with them the simple pleasure of gathering together in the square.

Ovens lit and mountain flavors

During the event, ovens are lit and stands come to life: fragrant bread, local salami and cheeses, Friulian wines, and craft beer, accompanied by tastings of typical products. Among the most popular events are the bread-making and cheesemaking demonstrations with the Petris family, the workshops for children ("Let's knead together!"), and carriage rides for the whole family.

Carnic music and atmosphere

The festival is accompanied by live folk music, with groups like the Ghidina Folk animating the square, and a typically Carnic convivial atmosphere. Organized by the Pro Loco Tinisa with the support of the Municipality of Ampezzo (Province of Udine), the Fiesta dal Pan is a delicious and authentic event, perfect for discovering the flavors and gastronomic culture of Alta Carnia.
