About Piana Crixia Fair

In Piana Crixia, a village in the Savona Bormida Valley known for its natural park and badlands, the Trade and Craftsmanship Fair enlivens the town for ten days straddling late June and early July. Organized by the Pro Loco, it features commercial and craft exhibitors, a funfair with travelling shows for all ages, a dance floor, and a food stand with local specialties and beer service. One of the longest-running and most beloved fairs in the Savona hinterland.

The Great Fair of the Bormida Valley

In Piana Crixia, a municipality in the Province of Savona in the Bormida Valley, the Trade and Craftsmanship Fair is a historic event that has enlivened the town for decades at the start of summer. Organized by the Pro Loco, it spans ten days between the end of June and the beginning of July, making it one of the longest-running events in the Savona hinterland.

Fair, Funfair, and Dancing

The fair brings together commercial and craft exhibitors, with stalls animating the town center. Accompanying it are a funfair with travelling shows for all ages, a dance floor for evening dances, and a food stand with local specialties and beer service. A mix of commerce, entertainment, and good food that attracts visitors from all over the valley.

Piana Crixia, Between Badlands and Nature

The village is famous for the Piana Crixia Regional Natural Park, with its striking badlands and the "stone mushroom," a unique geological formation. The fair is an opportunity to discover this corner of the Ligurian hinterland, where the fair tradition combines with the beauty of a surprising landscape, on the border between Liguria and Piedmont.
