The third Aosta Valley craftsmanship fair, at the foot of the Matterhorn
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.
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.
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.
The 2026 edition of the Traditional Aosta Valley Craftsmanship Fair takes place on Sunday, August 9, 2026, from 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM, in the Bourg district of Antey-Saint-André. Artisans from the region will exhibit works of wood sculpting, carving, and turning, weaving, soapstone, iron, and copper.
The fair, third in importance in the Aosta Valley after Aosta and Donnas, confirms itself as one of the most significant showcases of traditional alpine art professions, complemented by the flavors of local gastronomy and regional music.
The detailed program will be published on the Antey-Saint-André Municipality's channels closer to the event.
