About Sagra del Riso di Roncaro
Rice takes centre stage in Roncaro
The Sagra del Riso di Roncaro is the autumn event that celebrates rice, the star ingredient of the Po Valley's cuisine and Pavese gastronomic tradition. It is held in Roncaro, a small municipality in the province of Pavia, and is an opportunity to immerse yourself in local culture and taste traditional dishes.
Cuisine and conviviality
The heart of the festival are the food stalls run by the Pro Loco, where traditional risottos are served – from the classic to the risotto with salami paste – alongside more elaborate recipes. Alongside the restaurant, there are market stands, dancing evenings, and entertainment, all in a village festival atmosphere.
A festival organised by the Pro Loco
The event is organised by the Pro Loco of Roncaro with the patronage of the Municipality of Roncaro and is a regular fixture on the autumn festival calendar for the province of Pavia, much appreciated by risotto lovers.
