Emilia Romagna: land of good food, hundreds of events and delicious food festivals.
In late June, Forlimpopoli celebrates the Artusiana Festival, the food festival dedicated to the most famous citizen of Forlimpopoli: Pellegrino Artusi and the city becomes the capital of eating well.
In August Castel del Rio hosts the Porcini Mushroom Fair, in September take place the Parma Ham Festival in Parma and the Piadina Festival in Bellaria.
In Autumn, the “Tartufesta” involves more villages in the Bolognese Appennini with tastings of the white truffle typical of these areas.

Not only food festivals, Emilia Romagna also offers historical re-enactments, such as the Medieval Festivals in Brisighella: three days dedicated to ancient crafts, duels and music and the Bundan Celtic Festival, a faithful reconstruction of the Celtic population life during the Celtic period in Emilia Romagna.
