About Lu Bo e la Fejri

Every spring, Coazze, a small town in the Val Sangone area near Turin, hosts Lu Bo e la Fejri, a historic agricultural and forestry fair celebrating the timber industry and the mountain traditions of Piedmont. The name, in the Piedmontese dialect, means "the ox and the fair": a day filled with craft and food stalls, plant nurseries, live wood carving demonstrations, street food, and the famous Lumberjack Triathlon.

Lu Bo e la Fejri, the Coazze Wood Fair

In the heart of the Val Sangone, just a stone's throw from Turin, the town of Coazze dedicates an entire day to its most authentic identity: the forest, wood, and artisanal craftsmanship. Lu Bo e la Fejri — a name in the Piedmontese dialect meaning "the ox and the fair," a nod to ancient agricultural village fairs — is now one of the valley's most beloved events and a key appointment for promoting the forestry sector and local traditions.

A fair spread throughout the village streets

For one day, the historic center of Coazze transforms into an open-air exhibition. Along Viale Italia '61 and in the town squares, you will find stalls featuring artisanal and food products, fine artistic crafts, plant and flower nurseries, and a large street food area offering local specialties. The beating heart of the day is the sculptors and woodcarvers, joined by carving schools from Val Sangone and Val Susa, who create their works live, featuring chainsaw sculptures, tree climbing demonstrations, and forestry machinery displays.

Traditions, taste, and culture

Alongside woodworking, there is space for hobbyists showcasing wicker baskets, terracotta, textiles, and paintings, as well as spinning and weaving demonstrations that recount the crafts of the past. The fair is also an opportunity to discover the cultural heritage of Coazze: during the day, the Ecomuseum of the Upper Val Sangone and the Resistance Ecomuseum open their doors with exhibitions dedicated to the history and territory of the valley.

An event for the whole family

Designed for all ages, the event offers games for children, the traditional bread-making workshop, and numerous side activities. Promoted by the Municipality of Coazze with the support of the Metropolitan City of Turin and the Val Sangone Mountain Union, Lu Bo e la Fejri combines taste, craftsmanship, and culture in one of the most vibrant days of the Piedmontese spring.
