About Wild Boar Festival
The Wild Boar Festival in the Umbrian Apennines
The Wild Boar Festival takes place every summer in the hamlet of Osteria del Gatto, in Fossato di Vico, a village in the Umbrian Apennines in the province of Perugia. It is one of the many gastronomic festivals that characterize Umbrian August, dedicated to an iconic product of these mountains: wild boar.
Gastronomy and Conviviality
The absolute star is local cuisine, with typical dishes and wild boar specialties from the area. The food stalls are accompanied each evening by shows and entertainment, in a festive atmosphere that attracts residents and visitors from nearby towns.
A Village Festival
Like many Apennine festivals, the event is an occasion for community gathering: music, dancing, and outdoor evenings make Osteria del Gatto a small focal point of the Fossato summer. An authentic way to discover the gastronomic tradition of the Umbria Region away from the more well-known destinations.
