The True Wild Boar Festival of Castelmarte

The most delicious festival in the Larian Triangle

In the heart of the Larian Triangle, between the Como and Lecco branches of Lake Como, the small village of Castelmarte, in the province of Como, dedicates one of its most anticipated days to an undisputed protagonist of mountain cuisine: wild boar. The True Wild Boar Festival transforms the historic center into a widespread celebration, with the oratory kitchen offering dishes of Lombard tradition.

The flavors of wild boar and Lombard cuisine

The menu is the true heart of the festival: wild boar ragu, polenta, stew, and other typical specialties, prepared according to old recipes. Around the table, the convivial atmosphere that makes Lombard festivals an unmissable autumn event is created, when the villages of the Larian Triangle celebrate the fruits of the season and the products of the forest.

Games, folklore, and shows for everyone

The festival is not just about gastronomy. The program includes traditional wooden games, free inflatables for children, puppet shows, moments of folklore with local groups, magic shows, and a free tasting of local products. A program designed for families, making the festival an occasion for celebration for all ages.

An event promoted by the territory

The event is organized by the Pro Loco of Castelmarte together with the Municipality, with the support of the regional call Lombardia Style, and is entirely free to enter. A virtuous example of how the small communities of the Larian Triangle know how to enhance their traditions and their historic center.
