About Massetane Days

In the heart of the medieval village of Massa Martana, at the foot of the Martani Mountains in the province of Perugia, the Massetane Days are the event of the summer. Now in its 58th edition, the event enlivens Piazza Umberto I and the streets of the historic center with the Osteria della Faraona, artisanal gelato, Umbrian wine tastings, literary encounters, shows, and a white night of music and folklore. An event that combines the gastronomic traditions of the territory with culture and entertainment, from sunset until late at night.

Massa Martana's Most Anticipated Festival

The Massetane Days 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 in 2026, the event transforms Piazza Umberto I and the historic center into a grand stage of flavors, culture, and music.

The Osteria della Faraona and Local Flavors

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 selection that tells the story of the enogastronomic identity of the Martani Mountains.

Culture, Shows, and White Night

The Massetane Days are not just about gastronomy: the program includes literary encounters ("Pages under the stars"), art exhibitions, magic and mentalism shows, and activities for 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 also involves temporary traffic changes on the SR 316 dei Monti Martani.
