Edition 2025 — Wild Boar Festival

The first edition of the Selci Wild Boar Festival took place on Saturday, May 17, 2025, starting at 7:00 PM, in the parking area below Piazza del Popolo in Selci. For the first time, the Sabina village hosted an evening entirely dedicated to wild boar, with traditional dishes, good wine, and live music by the folk group Gli Stornellatori, who brought the spirit of Roman musical tradition to the square.

The festival's debut, May 17, 2025

On Saturday, May 17, 2025, Selci hosted the Selci Wild Boar Festival for the first time, organized by the Pro Loco in the parking area below Piazza del Popolo. From 7:00 PM until late in the evening, the small village in lower Sabina, in the province of Rieti, transformed into a large open-air restaurant, with wild boar served in various ways: stewed, grilled, with pasta, or as a main course, always accompanied by local wines.

The evening was enlivened by the folk group Gli Stornellatori, with traditional Roman songs and stornelli. The success of this first edition convinced the Pro Loco Selci Futura APS to repeat the event, creating a new village tradition destined to grow over the years.
