About Sagra degli Gnocchi
Handmade gnocchi, with pride
The Sagra degli Gnocchi of Santa Maria boasts a traditional dish: the gnocchi are strictly and proudly handmade. The menu offers them in many variations: with classic tomato sauce, meat ragù, duck sauce, wild mushrooms, and more refined preparations like gnocchi with zucchini and shrimp or with wild boar and porcini.
A festival that lasts a week
The event takes place in Santa Maria, a hamlet of Monteleone d'Orvieto in the province of Terni, and lasts an entire week, usually from Monday to Sunday in mid-June. It is one of the most important and well-attended festivals in the Orvietano area, attracting visitors from all over Umbria and beyond.
Music, pub, and entertainment
The festival is not just about food. Every evening, the dance floor hosts live bands, while the pub area offers live music, and one evening features a DJ set. There are also stalls, an entertainment area, and an aperitif zone to shorten the wait. A mix of gastronomy and celebration makes the Sagra degli Gnocchi a key event of the Terni summer.
