Fieste dal Pais

The village festival in the heart of the Friulian Dolomites

Forni di Sotto, a municipality in the upper Val Tagliamento immersed in the Friulian Dolomites Park, dedicates the height of summer to Fieste dal Pais, the "village festival" that has enlivened the Carnic Ferragosto for decades. It is the occasion when the small mountain community comes together: alongside residents, emigrants, distant families, and numerous tourists who choose this valley for its unspoiled nature return.

Gastronomy, music, and community

The program revolves around the rediscovery of local gastronomy, with stands offering traditional Carnic and Forni di Sotto dishes, accompanied by evenings of music, entertainment, and moments of conviviality. The festival, organized by the Pro Loco of Forni di Sotto, is part of the rich Ferragosto calendar of the Pro Loco of Friuli Venezia Giulia and maintains a genuine atmosphere, far from large crowds, characterized by hospitality and village identity.

A Ferragosto between nature and tradition

The setting is that of the Friulian Dolomites: meadows, woods, and peaks form the backdrop to a festival that celebrates the bond between the community and its mountains. For those visiting Carnia during Ferragosto, Fieste dal Pais is the ideal opportunity to discover the hospitality of Forni di Sotto and the authentic flavors of one of Friuli's most genuine valleys.
