About Porchetta and Sausage Festival
A festival dedicated to traditional flavors
The Porchetta and Sausage Festival is one of the most beloved culinary events in Casola di Napoli, a small town in the Metropolitan City of Naples, Campania, perched on the slopes of the Monti Lattari just a short distance from the Sorrento Peninsula. For years, the event has drawn locals and visitors from neighboring villages, all united by a passion for good food and folk traditions.
The stars of the show: porchetta and sausage
At the heart of the festival are two icons of local peasant cuisine. The porchetta, slow-cooked in a wood-fired oven and seasoned with aromatic herbs, and the sausage, prepared according to local recipes and grilled over charcoal. These dishes are served with seasonal sides like friarielli, potatoes, and vegetables, accompanied by homemade bread, red wine, and traditional sweets. The food stalls, set up along the town's streets, typically open in the evening when the air cools down and the scent of the grills fills the village.
Music, folklore, and village atmosphere
The festival is more than just a gastronomic event; it is a true community celebration. The evenings are filled with live music, featuring folk groups, tammurriate, and classic Neapolitan songs that invite everyone to dance. There are also craft stalls, markets selling local products, and areas for children, making it a fun outing for all ages.
A Monti Lattari village to discover
Attending the festival is also the perfect opportunity to explore Casola di Napoli, a quiet village surrounded by nature that preserves a vibrant rural identity. Organized with the dedication of the Pro Loco and the local administration, the event highlights regional products and renews the bond between the community and its roots every year. For those visiting Campania in the summer, it is an authentic way to experience the hospitality and flavors of the Neapolitan hinterland, far from the crowded coastal tourist spots.
