Edition 2025 — Potato Festival

The 47th Rotzo Potato Festival took place from August 29 to 31, 2025, with three days dedicated to the symbolic potato of the oldest municipality on the Altopiano dei Sette Comuni: gnocchi, polenta, and potato specialties, live music, DJ sets, a Cimbrian market, children's areas, and a historical exhibition on cultivation.

The 2025 edition, the 47th, was held in Rotzo from Friday, August 29 to Sunday, August 31. Three days with the food stands taking center stage — Rotzo potato gnocchi and polenta in the spotlight — and a rich program of music, tribute bands, DJ sets, and shows. There was also space for Cimbrian culture with the Tzimbar Maarktele market, for families with children's games, and for peasant memory with the historical exhibition on the Rotzo potato and the display of vintage tractors.
