About Sagra del Crostolo
The crostolo takes center stage
The Sagra del Crostolo is a traditional gastronomic festival in Loano, on the Riviera Ligure di Ponente, in the province of Savona. It celebrates crostoli — typical sweet fried dough — and fugassin, the Ligurian fried focaccias, symbols of the region's humble yet delicious cuisine.
The giant pan
The most spectacular moment is the frying in the large pan over two meters wide, set up on the seafront, from which hot crostoli and fugassin are continuously produced. A spectacle that attracts the curious and the food lovers, amidst the aroma of frying and the lively festival atmosphere.
A seaside festival
Organized on the seafront of Loano, the festival is one of the most beloved events in the summer calendar of the Savona town. A popular festival that combines gastronomic tradition and conviviality, perfect for enjoying a summer evening by the sea.
