Grilled Lamb and Typical Umbrian Products in Monte Castello di Vibio
The Sagra dell'Agnello Scottadito e dei Prodotti Tipici Umbri is the signature festival of Monte Castello di Vibio, a small medieval village in the province of Perugia, known for hosting the Teatro della Concordia, the smallest theatre in the world. Reaching its 45th edition in 2026, the festival is a historic event that attracts good food enthusiasts from all over the Tiber Valley every year.
The main dish is agnello scottadito (grilled lamb), prepared according to the typical and secret local recipe. Alongside it, the food stalls offer a rich traditional menu: gnocchi with goose sauce, strangozzi with truffle, pappardelle with wild boar, fried lamb, pork knuckle, and other dishes that change nightly. A menu that tells the gastronomic identity of rural Umbria, with intense and genuine flavours.
The festival is not just about gastronomy: every evening the celebration continues with dance orchestras on a large dance floor, accompanied by a Summer Pub with themed evenings. Ten days of festivities that combine food and fun, in the heart of one of Umbria's most charming villages.
The 2026 edition, the forty-fifth, is held from June 27 to July 5 in the village of Monte Castello di Vibio. The food stalls will offer grilled lamb every evening, along with traditional Umbrian dishes, while after dinner, dance orchestras will liven up the dance floor. The detailed schedule of orchestras will be published by the Pro Loco in the days preceding the festival.
