The Pumpkin Festival in Castel San Pietro is an explosion of fall flavors and colors

On the last weekend of October, Castel San Pietro invites you to one of the season’s most cheerful and delicious events: the Pumpkin Festival, the perfect way to celebrate fall and its finest bounty.

The stars of the show will be pumpkins in all their shapes, sizes, and colors: large, small, elongated, oval, orange, green, or yellow. Which one will win the title of “queen of the festival” this year? If you have one with an unusual or unique shape, you can even enter it in the competition!

There’s also plenty of room for flavor: a unique opportunity to sample this versatile vegetable prepared in countless ways. Whether you have a sweet tooth or prefer savory dishes, you’ll find risottos, gnocchi, cakes, cookies, jams, ice cream, and much more waiting for you.
