Sapori di Sardegna — Solaro

Sapori di Sardegna in Solaro

Sapori di Sardegna is the festival that, at the start of each summer, brings the scents and traditions of the island to Solaro, a municipality in the Metropolitan City of Milan. The event opens the calendar of Summer Festivals that liven up the equipped area of the sports centre in Corso Berlinguer, and is curated by the Circolo Sardo Grazia Deledda, one of the many associations that preserve the identity of Sardinian communities who have emigrated in Lombardy.

Sardinia on the table

The heart of the festival is its gastronomy. The stalls offer the great classics of the island's cuisine: porceddu (roast suckling pig), malloreddus (Sardinian gnocchi), sheep and cheese specialities, and desserts like seadas. Each dish tells the story of a land and a culture, accompanied by Sardinian wines and a convivial atmosphere that attracts many visitors from the Saronnese area.

Not just food

In addition to food, Sapori di Sardegna offers moments of music and culture linked to island traditions, in a festive atmosphere that brings together the Sardinian community of Solaro and many curious locals. It's a way to discover a rich and vibrant cultural heritage, far from the sea but close to the hearts of those who carry it with them.

The start of the Solaro summer

Taking place in early June, Sapori di Sardegna kicks off the long season of festivals that characterises Solaro's summer, in Lombardy, lasting until mid-July with sagre (food festivals), patron saint festivals, and white nights.
