Mushroom and Truffle Festival of Corsico - King Mushroom and Mr. Truffle

Mushrooms and truffles, the kings of autumn

When autumn brings the flavors of the forest to the table, Corsico, a town in the province of Milan on the Naviglio Grande canal, dedicates a grand festival to the two protagonists of the season: mushrooms and truffles. The Mushroom and Truffle Festival, affectionately nicknamed "King Mushroom and Mr. Truffle", takes place at Parco Verdi, between Via Verdi and Via Bixio, under a large covered structure that makes it accessible in all weather.

An autumn menu

The heart of the event is the cuisine, which celebrates mushrooms and truffles in all their variations: truffle risotto, beef tartare with truffle, handmade fresh pasta with mushrooms and sausage, fried porcini, and much more, including fresh truffles sold by weight for those who want to take some home. A special children's menu is available for the little ones. A rich and genuine cuisine that tells the story of autumn's traditional flavors.

Cabaret, music, and magic

The festival is not just about gastronomy: every evening features cabaret shows, tribute bands of great Italian music artists – from Ligabue tributes to 883 – and magic shows. There are also street performers, face painters, fire-eaters, and, at the opening, Halloween-themed entertainment. An entertainment program designed to accompany dinner and make the festival enjoyable for the whole family.

A delicious and free festival

With free admission and reservations recommended, the Mushroom and Truffle Festival is one of the most anticipated gastronomic events of the Corsico autumn. Organized by the La Loggia team, it attracts enthusiasts and gourmets from all over the southwestern Milan area each year, confirming the town's connection with the flavors and traditions of the table.
