Giornate Massetane
Seven days of celebration, culture, and gastronomy in the village of Massa Martana
About Giornate Massetane
The most anticipated festival in Massa Martana
The Giornate Massetane are the highlight of the summer in Massa Martana, a small municipality in the province of Perugia nestled among the Martani Mountains. Now in its 58th edition, the event transforms Piazza Umberto I and the historic center into a grand stage of flavors, culture, and music.
The Osteria della Faraona and the flavors of the territory
The gastronomic heart of the festival is the Osteria della Faraona, which offers traditional dishes and specialties based on guinea fowl and pheasant. There is also a street dedicated to artisanal gelato and the "In vino Veritas" event, featuring tastings from the best Umbrian wineries. A offering that tells the story of the enogastronomic identity of the Martani Mountains.
Culture, shows, and white night
The Giornate Massetane are not just about gastronomy: the program includes literary encounters ("Pages under the stars"), art exhibitions, magic and mentalism shows, and moments dedicated to children with a kids' area and entertainment. The most anticipated moment is the grand night of celebration, from sunset to dawn, with music, dancing, DJ sets, and folklore. An event of such appeal that it may also involve temporary traffic changes on the SR 316 dei Monti Martani.
Giornate Massetane — edition 2026
The 2026 edition, the fifty-eighth, takes place from August 9 to 15 in the historic center of Massa Martana. The program alternates gastronomy, culture, and entertainment: from the Osteria della Faraona to the "In vino Veritas" tastings, from the "Pages under the stars" literary encounters to the evening shows, culminating in the Ferragosto white night with music, dancing, and folklore.
