About Craftsmanship Fair of Antey

Considered the third traditional craftsmanship fair in the Aosta Valley after Aosta and Donnas, the Traditional Aosta Valley Craftsmanship Fair of Antey-Saint-André brings together artisans from the region in the charming Bourg district, with the Matterhorn as a backdrop. Wood sculptures, carvings, and turnings, weaving, soapstone, iron, and copper work: an entire day dedicated to the art professions that tell the story of mountain communities' identity.

A Showcase of Aosta Valley Craftsmanship

The Traditional Aosta Valley Craftsmanship Fair in Antey-Saint-André, in the province of Aosta, is considered the third most important fair in the Aosta Valley dedicated to traditional craftsmanship, after the renowned Fiera di Sant'Orso in Aosta and the one in Donnas. It takes place in the heart of the village, in the characteristic Bourg district, with the unmistakable backdrop of the Matterhorn.

Mountain Art Professions

Along the stalls, you can admire and purchase works by Aosta Valley artisans: wood sculpting, carving, and turning, weaving, soapstone, iron, and copper work. These are the objects that have accompanied the daily lives and traditions of the region's alpine communities for centuries, passed down from generation to generation and still produced by hand today.

A Day of Celebration

The fair is not just a market but also an occasion for meeting: the flavors of local gastronomy and the music of Aosta Valley tradition intertwine among the stalls, in a day that celebrates the bond between mountain communities and their heritage.
