About Sagra dei Cavatelli
The summer festival of Larino
The Sagra dei Cavatelli is one of the historic events of the summer in Larino, in the province of Campobasso. Celebrated in honor of the Madonna del Carmelo, the festival combines religious devotion and gastronomic tradition in the heart of the historic center, in Piazza Duomo.
Handmade cavatelli
The absolute star is the typical Molise pasta: the cavatelli are handmade by the women of the community, who work on their preparation in the months leading up to the festival. On the evening of the festival, the pasta is served to visitors in a convivial atmosphere that recalls the authentic peasant culture of Basso Molise.
A community tradition
Organized by the Festival Committee of the Parish of San Pardo, the Sagra dei Cavatelli is part of the Larino Summer calendar and represents a moment of aggregation for the entire city of Larino, between faith, flavors, and tradition.
