Fried Potato Festival

The 53rd Fried Potato Festival

The 2025 edition, the 53rd, was held from August 16 to 21, 2025 in Piazza della Vittoria in Santa Maria a Monte (Pisa), organized by the Assunta Fair Committee. Frying of the Patata Tosca in the giant pan began daily in the afternoon, with food stalls opening in the evening and two distinct menus (potato and Tuscan cuisine).

The evenings, with free admission, featured music and shows: guests included the historic band Dik Dik, the Queen tribute band Killer Queen, the Mamamia Tour, dance nights, and comedy shows, in addition to the Harley Davidson rally and the final raffle. The edition was dedicated to the memory of Carla Bastianelli.
