The village festival of Tordandrea with Umbrian cuisine and dance music
A few kilometers from Assisi, immersed in the Umbrian Valley countryside, the hamlet of Tordandrea hosts one of the most beloved village festivals in the area every summer. Tordandrea in Festa was born from the Pro Loco's desire to keep alive the tradition of gathering, genuine cuisine, and dancing evenings that have marked generations of Umbrian summers.
The heart of the event is the gastronomic tavern, where volunteers prepare dishes from traditional Umbrian peasant cuisine. The long tables set up in the center of the village, along Via Enrico Fermi, welcome families, friends, and visitors from Assisi and neighboring towns every evening.
The fun revolves around the dance music orchestras that liven up the village dance floor until late at night, with ballroom dancing, group dances, and the greatest hits of Italian pop music. It's a tried-and-tested formula that makes Tordandrea in Festa a reference point for dance enthusiasts from all over the area.
The festival takes place in the village of Tordandrea, a hamlet of the Municipality of Assisi, in the province of Perugia. The Pro Loco Tordandrea also organizes other events throughout the year, such as the masked Carnival party and the Flavors of Autumn, but the summer edition represents the most cherished moment for the community.
For 2026, the Pro Loco Tordandrea confirms the formula that has made the festival famous: typical cuisine prepared by volunteers, communal dining, and dancing under the stars. The event is held in the center of the village, along Via Enrico Fermi, from July 10 to 19.
The detailed program for the 2026 evenings, including the names of the dance music orchestras and the gastronomic calendar, will be published by Pro Loco Tordandrea on their official channels in the weeks preceding the event.
The usual structure includes the opening of the tavern each evening with dishes from Umbrian tradition, followed by musical entertainment with dance orchestras on the dance floor set up in the center of the village.
Tordandrea is located in the plain between Assisi and Bastia Umbra, in the province of Perugia. It is easily reached by car from the E45 highway (Ospedalicchio exit) or from the state road towards Assisi. The nearest train station is Assisi-Santa Maria degli Angeli.
Free admission. For details on the menu and evening program: Pro Loco Tordandrea, tel. +39 334 6608345, [email protected].
