2, 3 and 4 September 2011 in Gragnano
Are you thinking in a last little holiday before the autumn begins? are you looking for a bright place, good food and an amazing atmosphere?
Maybe is the case for you to consider to spend some days in Gragnano, near Naples and on the stunning Sorrento's peninsula. Gragnano is especially known in Italy and abroad as the hometown of the pasta, reason why every year there takes place this great Festival. This year the party will start on the 2nd of September for a three days celebration of this important ingredient, everyday on our tables, but also all the tradition and culture behind it.
If last year the theme was "the truly pasta's charm", this year the theme will be "the pasta's madness" and I can only imagine what this is going to mean.
Usually in fact the festival includes lots of different shows, concerts and workshops open air all around the city, but there will also be three big guests: for this edition they will be the famous italian Circo Nero, Simone Cristicchi e Mario Biondi.
We are really excited by this event that puts together, tradition, amazing shows, music concerts, and where you will have the chance to try the real PGI pasta from Gragnano with all the people who actually make that and leave in the city.
It's a very unique experience in an amazing environment, and the best way to visit the Campania region. You will find all the latest news here in some days, or just leave a comment to this post and I will answer as soon as possible.
