The autumn festival of beans and Cremonese cuisine in Sospiro
The Sagra del Fasùlin is the festival that every autumn celebrates in Sospiro, in the province of Cremona, the fasùlin, the bean that gives the event its name and is rooted in the peasant cuisine of the Bassa Padana. The event is organised by the Pro Loco di Sospiro APS and has achieved solid continuity in recent years, with the covered space of the Palafagiolino becoming its symbol.
The format includes two weekends between late October and November, with two different menus: the dishes are served in the evening in a heated marquee set up in the sports centre's festival area, so as to welcome diners even in the autumn chill. On the table are the specialities of Cremonese tradition, from bean-based dishes to local classics.
In addition to the food, the Sagra del Fasùlin is a moment of community gathering for the town: the Pro Loco livens up the evenings and accompanies the gastronomic tradition with the convivial atmosphere typical of festivals in the Bassa region. The artisanal care of the dishes and the heated environment make it a popular stop on the autumn food and wine calendar of the province of Cremona.
For 2026, the Pro Loco of Sospiro confirms the Sagra del Fasùlin, maintaining the tried-and-tested format of two autumn weekends with two different menus at the Palafagiolino.
The exact schedule of evenings is published by the Pro Loco in the weeks preceding the event. The kitchen opens in the evening with traditional Cremonese dishes, featuring beans, in the heated marquee of the sports centre's festival area.
The detailed programme and dates for the 2026 edition will be announced by the Pro Loco of Sospiro in the autumn.
