Trentodoc Festival

The Trentodoc Festival

The Trentodoc Festival is the event that celebrates the mountain bubbles of Trentino, the Metodo Classico sparkling wines produced in the Dolomites and the valleys surrounding Trento, in the heart of Trentino-Alto Adige. For three days, the regional capital transforms into a hub of quality wine, with a widespread program involving the historic center of the Municipality of Trento and wineries scattered across the province.

Mountain Bubbles

Trentodoc was born from the intuition of Giulio Ferrari in the early 20th century and, in 1993, became the first Italian controlled designation of origin reserved for Metodo Classico sparkling wines. Over one hundred labels, produced by dozens of sparkling wine houses associated with the Istituto Trentodoc, share this collective territorial brand. The festival showcases this unique identity, defined by high-altitude vineyards, significant temperature variations, and patient aging on the lees.

The Program

The event offers a rich and varied calendar that weaves together multiple disciplines:

• Guided tastings and vertical tastings led by sommeliers and industry experts;
• Thematic masterclasses dedicated to the Metodo Classico and food-wine pairings;
• Talks and meetings with leading figures from the worlds of wine, cuisine, literature, cinema, and design;
• Winery experiences, with local sparkling wine producers opening their doors to visitors;
• Cook Tales, DJ sets, and evening appointments held in historic palaces, courtyards, and gardens in the center of Trento.

A Dialogue Between Wine and Culture

Under the artistic direction of Luciano Ferraro, deputy editor of Corriere della Sera, the festival turns tasting into a well-rounded cultural experience, connecting wine with art, architecture, medicine, cinema, and music. The event is promoted by the Autonomous Province of Trento in partnership with the Istituto Trentodoc and Trentino Marketing, in collaboration with Corriere della Sera.

Wine Tourism in Trentino

The Trentodoc Festival is now one of the flagship events for wine tourism in Trentino-Alto Adige, confirming the region's ambition to rank among Italy's top wine tourism destinations. The 2025 edition featured over one hundred and sixty events across three days, spanning the center of Trento and the local wineries, drawing a large and passionate audience.
