Street Food Festival Reggiolo

Reggiolo fills with aromas and music

Every spring, the historic center of Reggiolo, in the province of Reggio Emilia, hosts the Street Food Festival: three days during which Piazza Martiri becomes the kingdom of street food. Food trucks and mobile kitchens from various Italian regions and different countries line the square, while live music and evening shows transform the gastronomic event into a true village festival open to all, with free admission.

What to eat

The beauty of the Street Food Festival is its variety: in just a few steps, you can travel around Italy and the world. Among the offerings that liven up the Reggiolo editions, you'll find:

• Italian specialties: arrosticini from Abruzzo, bombette from Puglia, Roman cuisine, and pizza prepared on the spot;
• Emilian and Reggiano tradition: gnocco fritto, erbazzone, and craft beer, the flavors of home;
• World cuisine: Brazilian rotisserie, Indian and Eastern European specialties, as well as classic hamburgers.

A selection designed to please all tastes, from the most traditional to the most curious, in a culinary journey to be enjoyed while strolling among the stands.

Themed evenings

What sets the Reggiolo Street Food Festival apart is its evening program: each day has its own musical and entertainment theme, with DJ sets, tribute acts, and dance performances that get the square dancing until late. It ranges from beloved Italian hits to the nineties atmosphere, to Latin sounds, in an alternation of offerings that makes each evening different from the others.

An event for the territory

Organized by the Pro Loco Reggiolo with the patronage of the Municipality of Reggiolo and in collaboration with market operators, the Street Food Festival is one of the most anticipated events of the Reggiolo spring. It's an opportunity to rediscover the historic center, support local commerce, and experience the typical conviviality of the Bassa Reggiana, where good food and music have always gone hand in hand. The free admission formula makes it perfect for an evening with family or friends.
