About Market Exhibition of Posina

On the last Sunday of October, the small municipality of Posina, in the upper Vicenza valley at the foot of the Pasubio, celebrates the flavors of the mountains with the Market Exhibition of Typical Local Products. From the morning, stalls offer vegetables, fruit, honey, cheeses, and the famous Posina potato, in a zero-kilometer market that promotes mountain agriculture. The food stand serves Posina gnocchi, while in the afternoon the Alpini prepare the traditional roasted chestnuts. To complete the celebration, a parade with the blessing of agricultural vehicles.

The flavors of the Vicenza mountains

The Market Exhibition of Typical Local Products is the autumn event of Posina, a mountain municipality in the upper Vicenza valley in the province of Vicenza, nestled at the foot of the Pasubio massif. Organized by the Pro Loco Posina, the event traditionally takes place on the last Sunday of October and celebrates genuine mountain products in a zero-kilometer market.

The Posina potato and local products

The heart of the day is the local product market, open from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM, where you can find vegetables, fruit, honey, cheeses, and above all the famous Posina potato, a recognized excellence of the valley. The stalls showcase mountain agriculture made up of small productions and care for the territory.

Gnocchi, chestnuts, and Alpine tradition

From 11:30 AM, the food stand opens, featuring Posina gnocchi, prepared with the local potato. In the afternoon, from 3:00 PM, the Alpini manage the traditional roasted chestnuts, while the day is enriched by the parade and the blessing of agricultural vehicles, a sign of the deep bond between the community and farm work.

A village festival at the foot of the Pasubio

More than just a fair, the Market Exhibition is a moment of identity for Posina and the entire valley: an opportunity to rediscover the rhythms and flavors of the Vicenza mountains, in a village that preserves Alpine traditions and high-quality agricultural productions.
