About Spezzato Festival
Lo Spezzato, Ceppagna's Identity
The Spezzato Festival is the gastronomic feast of Ceppagna, a hamlet of Venafro in the province of Isernia. The star is Spezzato, a typical dish that has become the culinary symbol of the Ceppagna community and around which the entire event revolves.
Two Evenings of Celebration in Piazza Padre Pio
For two evenings, Piazza Padre Pio transforms into the heart of the celebration, with food stalls dedicated to Spezzato, music, dancing, and shows. The festival is organised by local committees and volunteers, with the support of local associations (Venafro Soccorso ODV for healthcare assistance, ANVVFC Venafro ODV for security), in a climate of strong community participation.
A Highlight of the Venafro Summer
The Spezzato Festival is one of the most cherished events of the summer in Venafro, capable of uniting the Ceppagna community and attracting visitors from neighbouring towns.
