About Sagra del Cinghiale

In August, the hamlet of Osteria del Gatto, in Fossato di Vico, celebrates one of the tastiest festivals in the Umbrian Apennines: the Sagra del Cinghiale (Wild Boar Festival). Local wild boar dishes and specialties, accompanied each evening by shows and entertainment, liven up the small hamlet in the province of Perugia. A popular festival that combines good food, tradition, and conviviality.

The wild boar festival in the Umbrian Apennines

The Sagra del Cinghiale takes place every summer in the hamlet of Osteria del Gatto, in Fossato di Vico, a village in the Umbrian Apennines in the province of Perugia. It is one of the many gastronomic festivals that characterize August in Umbria, dedicated to an iconic product of these mountains: wild boar.

Gastronomy and conviviality

The absolute star is local cuisine, with typical dishes and wild boar specialties from the area. The food stalls are accompanied each evening by shows and entertainment, in a festive atmosphere that attracts residents and visitors from nearby towns.

A village festival

Like many festivals in the Apennines, the event is an occasion for community gathering: music, dancing, and outdoor evenings make Osteria del Gatto a small focal point of the Fossato summer. An authentic way to discover the gastronomic tradition of the Umbria Region away from the more famous destinations.
