Poviglio to Taste

An Evening of Taste in the Center of Poviglio

Poviglio da Gustare is the evening event that lights up the historic center of Poviglio, a municipality in the Bassa Reggiana area of the province of Reggio Emilia, in the heart of Emilia-Romagna. For one evening, Piazza Umberto I and the main streets of the town—Via Indipendenza, Via Verdi, and surrounding streets—fill with food stalls, aromas, and music, transforming into a grand open-air culinary journey.

Street Food, Open Shops, and Conviviality

The common thread of the event is local street food: freshly prepared specialties, local products, and offerings to enjoy while strolling from one stall to another. The evening is the result of collaboration between the Municipality and the merchants of Poviglio, who keep their shops open late for the occasion, creating a true town festival that combines good food, shopping, and social interaction.

An Event for the Whole Family

Poviglio da Gustare is designed for all ages. From early evening, there are games and entertainment for children, while the atmosphere heats up with live music accompanying the evening. It's the perfect opportunity to gather with friends and family, discover the town center's businesses, and experience the typical warmth of the villages in the Reggiana plain.

In the Heart of Bassa Reggiana

Poviglio is located in the plain between the Po River and the Via Emilia, an area known for its agricultural and gastronomic traditions. The event is part of the rich calendar of events for the Terre di Po e dei Gonzaga network, which promotes the towns and flavors of the Bassa Reggiana. Participating in Poviglio da Gustare means discovering an authentic corner of Emilia, where cuisine, community, and the town square remain the stars.
