The taste of Sicily on the table in Camporosso
The Sagra dell'Arancina is the festival that brings the flavours of Sicily to Camporosso, a municipality in the Val Nervia in the province of Imperia. The star is the arancina, the famous Sicilian fried rice specialty, a symbol of the island's street food, presented here for a summer evening of taste and fun.
At the Palatenda Bigauda, stands offer arancine and other specialties of Sicilian cuisine, accompanied by live music. The atmosphere is that of summer festivals, with communal tables, scents from the South, and rhythms that liven up the evening, in a successful blend of Sicilian tradition and Ligurian hospitality.
Relatively new, the Sagra dell'Arancina has already found its audience, demonstrating how much the flavours of the South can win over even the western Ligurian coast. It's an event that enriches Camporosso's vibrant summer calendar with a different offering, perfect for an evening with friends.
A few kilometres from the sea and the French border, Camporosso is a dynamic municipality on the Riviera dei Fiori, rich in events and festivals throughout the summer. The Sagra dell'Arancina is an example of this, capable of uniting different gastronomic cultures in a festival of conviviality.
For 2026, the Sagra dell'Arancina reaches its 2nd edition, scheduled for Friday, July 10, at the Palatenda Bigauda in Camporosso, starting at 7:00 PM. Stands will offer arancine and other Sicilian specialties, while the evening will be enlivened by live music from the Jack-y band. A summer evening of Southern flavours and fun in the equipped area of the Palatenda.
Camporosso is served by the train station on the GenoaโVentimiglia line (Camporosso Mare). By car, exit at Ventimiglia or Bordighera (A10 motorway). The festival takes place at the Palatenda Bigauda.
Food stands open from 7:00 PM. Free entry; food and drinks payable.
