About Ossi de Mas-cio Festival

The Ossi de Mas-cio Festival is one of the most typical festivals in the Vicenza area, dedicated to boiled pork bones, a symbolic dish of the peasant cuisine of the past. Every September, the municipality of Longare, in the Berici Hills, comes alive for several evenings with a food stand, concerts, DJ sets, and moments of celebration for the entire community. An authentic festival that blends gastronomic memory, popular tradition, and fun, in the province of Vicenza.

A Humble Dish Becomes a Celebration

The Ossi de Mas-cio Festival celebrates a dish from the Vicenza peasant tradition: ossi de mas-cio, boiled pork bones, once a humble food made from leftovers, now an identity specialty of the area. The festival takes place in the municipality of Longare, in the Berici Hills, in the province of Vicenza, and each year attracts enthusiasts of genuine cuisine and lovers of authentic festivals.

A Taste of Tradition

The food stand opens every evening, offering a menu rooted in Venetian cuisine:

  • Ossi de mas-cio, ribs, sausage, and mixed grill
  • Bigoli and gnocchi in various preparations
  • Unmissable polenta to accompany the meats

Music and Fun for Everyone

Each evening is enlivened by concerts and DJ sets with different musical genres, from country to pop to dance, in a festive atmosphere that involves families, young people, and visitors. There are also dancing evenings, entertainment, and activities for children. The Ossi de Mas-cio Festival has thus been, for years, one of the most cherished events of Longare's late summer-early autumn season, capable of combining the valorization of a dish from memory with the fun of a big village festival.
