UmbriaWine – Festival del Vino Umbro
Umbrian wine takes centre stage in the historic centre of Perugia
About UmbriaWine
Perugia celebrates Umbrian wine
UmbriaWine is the Festival del Vino Umbro (Festival of Umbrian Wine) that every September brings the best of the region's wine production to the heart of Perugia. Founded in 2023, the event has experienced rapid growth, establishing itself as a strategic appointment for the promotion of Umbrian wine and territory.
The wine squares
The festival enlivens the most picturesque squares of the historic centre — Piazza Italia, Giardini Carducci, Piazza della Repubblica, Piazza Matteotti — with tasting stands featuring dozens of Umbrian wineries and hundreds of labels. The tastings, curated by sommeliers, allow visitors to discover the region's great wines, from indigenous grape varieties to the most renowned excellences.
Masterclasses and exclusive experiences
In addition to tastings, UmbriaWine offers themed masterclasses (dessert wines, indigenous grape varieties, gourmet pairings, wine and cigars) and sensory journeys in exclusive locations within the city, such as the Cloister of the Cathedral and the underground Perugia. Organised by the youth association Open Mind, the festival combines wine, culture, and music, enhancing the gastronomic identity of Umbria.
UmbriaWine — edition 2026
The fourth edition of UmbriaWine enlivens the historic centre of Perugia from 11 to 13 September 2026. Tastings will be spread across the city's most beautiful squares — Piazza Italia, Giardini Carducci, Piazza della Repubblica, Piazza Matteotti — with Umbrian wineries taking centre stage.
The program includes themed masterclasses, events in exclusive locations, and live music by local artists. The main innovation for 2026 is the international opening, with the presence of foreign operators to promote Umbrian wine beyond regional borders. The organisation is handled by the youth association Open Mind.
