About Verici Wine Festival

With almost seventy years of history, the Festa del Vino di Verici is one of the longest-running wine festivals in the Tigullio region. In the small hillside hamlet of Verici, above Casarza Ligure (Metropolitan City of Genoa), about fifteen selected wineries showcase over sixty labels for tasting. Workshops for children, gastronomy, and live music complete a late May weekend dedicated to wine and the flavors of the Ligurian hinterland.

A Wine Tradition of Almost Seventy Years

The Festa del Vino di Verici will reach its 68th edition in 2026, making it one of the oldest and most established wine festivals in Tigullio. It takes place in the hillside hamlet of Verici, above Casarza Ligure, in the Metropolitan City of Genoa: a small village that for one weekend becomes the meeting point for wine enthusiasts from Eastern Liguria.

Wineries and Tastings

The heart of the festival is the tastings: a selection of around fourteen wineries offers over sixty varieties of wines, with a dedicated space for the Vino in Garage exhibition and the Consorzio Rurale di Missano. An opportunity to discover the wine production of the territory and surrounding areas in an informal and convivial setting.

Gastronomy, Music, and Workshops

The event, organized by the Municipality of Casarza Ligure together with the Associazione Culturale U Seuio, is not just about wine: gastronomic stands open in the evening, while live music accompanies the later hours. Workshops for children are planned for families. The Festa del Vino di Verici is recognized among the 'Autentici Liguri' events, the brand with which the Liguria Region promotes the most distinctive local events.
