The historic national white and black truffle fair of Valtopina
About Mostra Mercato del Tartufo
Valtopina, autumn truffle capital
The National Truffle Market Exhibition of Valtopina is one of the oldest and most recognized truffle fairs in Umbria, celebrated for decades in the village in the province of Perugia. Valtopina, a village of about 1,400 inhabitants, has about two hundred truffle hunters: a figure that tells more than any description about the deep bond between the community and its precious mushroom. The national event is organized by the Municipality and the Pro Loco (local tourism board) as part of the National Association of Truffle Towns.
The market and producers
The heart of the fair is the market, with dozens of selected agri-food producers offering white and black truffles, along with typical local products and crafts. The stalls are open for the entire duration of the event, at the village's exhibition area.
Gastronomy, culture, and experiences
Alongside the market, themed dining offers truffle-based dishes, while the program is enriched by cooking shows, conferences on sustainability and the supply chain, exhibitions, truffle hunting excursions, trekking, and performances. An offering that combines product valorization with the discovery of traditional peasant gastronomy and the valley landscape.
Mostra Mercato del Tartufo — edition 2026
The 44th National Truffle Market Exhibition of Valtopina is expected in November 2026, following the tradition of holding the fair on the last weekends of the month.
