A market of local products and crafts in Piazza 2 Maggio, in the heart of Val Rendena
The Italian Traditions Festival is one of the most anticipated summer events in Carisolo, a small town in the Val Rendena valley in the province of Trento, Trentino-Alto Adige. For three days, the central Piazza 2 Maggio transforms into a large open-air market dedicated to regional specialties, craftsmanship, and accessories from various regions of Italy.
Strolling through the stalls, visitors can discover and purchase gastronomic delicacies, locally sourced products, and handmade creations that showcase the richness of Italian folk traditions. The event, organized by the Pro Loco Carisolo in collaboration with the Municipality of Carisolo and Marta Bulli Events, combines open-air shopping with the charm of a mountain village nestled between the Brenta Dolomites and the Adamello-Presanella group.
In addition to the market, the festival offers shows and entertainment for all ages, enlivening the days and evenings in the square. The program is designed to enhance the visit with art, magic, and opportunities for socializing in an exceptional natural setting.
One of the most characteristic features of the event is 'Un bosco di delizie' (A Forest of Delights), a staged food and wine tour in the chestnut grove of Carisolo that allows visitors to taste local products paired with Trentino wines, guided by A.I.S. Trentino sommeliers. It is an original way to combine exploring the territory, tasting local delicacies, and taking a walk immersed in nature, just a short distance from the town center and the church of Santo Stefano.
Located at the entrance to Val Genova and at the foot of the Brenta Dolomites, Carisolo is an ideal stop for those spending the summer between Pinzolo and Madonna di Campiglio. The Italian Traditions Festival is an opportunity to combine a mountain hike with the discovery of the typical products and crafts of our country, in the festive and familiar atmosphere typical of Trentino's Pro Loco associations. The event is part of a rich calendar of summer activities that animate the small Trentino town every year with sports, culture, and tradition.
The market of regional products, crafts, and accessories returns to Piazza 2 Maggio in Carisolo for three days: Friday, July 31 from 9:30 AM to 10:30 PM, Saturday, August 1 and Sunday, August 2 from 9:30 AM to 7:30 PM. An opportunity to discover the specialties and artisanal creations from all over Italy at the foot of the Brenta Dolomites.
During the weekend, the event is enriched with shows and side events, including entertainment in the square and food and wine offerings related to the Val Rendena area.
