Sapori d'Autunno - La Pulentada
The festival of polenta and autumn flavours in Lavagna di Comazzo
About La Pulentada
The polenta festival in Lavagna di Comazzo
Sapori d'Autunno - La Pulentada is the festival that every November brings the flavours of Lombard tradition to the hamlet of Lavagna di Comazzo, in the province of Lodi. The event takes place at the Oratorio San Bassiano Vescovo, in Piazza San Bassiano, where a large heated marquee is set up in the parish courtyard, allowing the festival to be enjoyed even in bad weather.
Polenta takes centre stage
As the name suggests – "Pulentada" in dialect – polenta is the queen of the table. The menu features the great classics of autumn Lombard cuisine: cassoeula with polenta, braised meat with polenta, pork knuckle with baked potatoes and polenta and gorgonzola. Hearty, convivial dishes, designed for the cold season.
An established tradition
The festival is organised by the Comitato sagra La Pulentada and typically spans several days in November. Over the years, it has become one of the most anticipated gastronomic events in the area, attracting visitors from neighbouring municipalities in the Lodi and Milan areas, thanks to Comazzo's location on the border between the two provinces.
La Pulentada — edition 2026
The 2026 edition of Sapori d'Autunno - La Pulentada is scheduled, as usual, over several days in November at the Oratorio San Bassiano Vescovo in Lavagna di Comazzo. In the heated marquee, Lombard traditional dishes return with polenta as the star – from cassoeula to braised meat to pork knuckle.
