Sagra dei Ossi de Mas-cio

A Humble Dish Becomes a Festival

The Sagra dei Ossi de Mas-cio celebrates a dish from the Vicenza peasant tradition: ossi de mas-cio, boiled pork bones, once a humble food for making the most of ingredients, now an identity specialty of the territory. The festival takes place in the municipality of Longare, in the Berici Hills, in the province of Vicenza, and each year attracts enthusiasts of genuine cuisine and lovers of authentic festivals.

A Taste of Tradition

The food stand opens every evening, offering a menu rooted in Venetian cuisine:

• Ossi de mas-cio, ribs, sausage, and mixed grill
• Bigoli and gnocchi in various preparations
• The essential polenta to accompany the meats

Music and Fun for Everyone

Each evening is enlivened by concerts and DJ sets with different musical genres, from country to pop to dance, in a festive atmosphere that involves families, young people, and visitors. There are also dancing evenings, entertainment, and activities for children. For years, the Sagra dei Ossi de Mas-cio has been one of the most cherished events of Longare's late summer-early autumn season, capable of combining the promotion of a nostalgic dish with the fun of a large village festival.
