Sapori e Motori

Motors and fine dining in the heart of Ciociaria

Sapori e Motori is an event that blends a passion for engines with a love for great food in Castro dei Volsci, a charming village in the Ciociaria region, province of Frosinone, in southern Lazio. Created by the Topini Randagi association in collaboration with the Abbraciamoci association and the support of the local Pro Loco, the festival transforms Piazza Iannucci and the town center into a vibrant meeting point for enthusiasts of all ages for an entire weekend.

A gathering for every motor enthusiast

The program revolves around rallies and exhibitions designed for all automotive tastes: motorcycles, vintage cars, 4x4 off-road vehicles, scale models, and test drives bring the days to life. The motorcycle meet and various rallies bring together crews from across the province and neighboring regions in a spirit of camaraderie among collectors, clubs, and curious visitors.

The Panda in Giro rally

The symbolic heart of the event is the Panda in Giro rally, dedicated to the legendary Fiat Panda, a true popular icon capable of gathering dozens of customized and collector models. It is the most defining moment of Sapori e Motori, celebrating a car that has truly captured the hearts of Italians.

Gastronomy and live music

The most convivial part of the festival revolves around the engines: charcoal-grilled meats, beer, aperitifs, and Ciociaria culinary specialties prepared at the food stands. Every evening, the town comes alive with live music and concerts in the square, entertaining the public until late. The exhibition areas offer free admission, making the event accessible to families and passing visitors.
