Festa della zucca – history and culture in Venzone

The municipality of Venzone honors its medieval past and culture through the 27° edition of the Festa della zucca, taking place on 26-27 October 2019. This event will take place in a very pleasant atmosphere and will be full of shows, jugglers, storytellers, fire-eaters and dish tastings based on pumpkin (zucca) receipts.
 
Sunday morning will be dedicated to the competition for the longest and heaviest pumpkin, as well as for the best decorated one. In the afternoon a great medieval festival will illuminate the streets with torches and animate them with medieval nobles, ladies and knights.
