Museto Festival – Porcomondo

The 2026 edition of the Museto Festival — the eighth festival and fifth World Museto Championship — took place on Saturday, January 17, 2026, at Casa Riese, in Riese Pio X.

For the first time, the number of participants reached a record of 75 pork butchers, coming from four regions (Veneto, Lombardy, Friuli Venezia Giulia, Trentino-Alto Adige) and ten provinces. The competition was preceded by regional pre-selections: the Friulian championship (won by Gianpietro Pasut) and the Trentino championship on January 11th in Albiano (won by Azienda Agricola Le Mandre of Bedollo). Defending the title, after two consecutive victories, was the reigning champion Davide Mion from the locanda Alla Speranza in Castelfranco Veneto. The evening concluded with a dinner-show for over three hundred people.
