Fall on the Euganean Hills: Festival and Events
Albert Camus said “Autumn is a second Spring, and each leave is a flower”, and by looking at the trees of our Park turning yellow, we’d have to agree with him! As the Fall on the Euganean Hills moves forward, the landscape is transfigured into a vivid palette of brown, ochre and red, the same colors that we will then find on our tables and in the many festivals that are held throughout the Veneto from October to December. Thanks to our Last Minute Offers you can stay in Frassanelle at a discounted price and take off to explore the area from our agriturismo!
Among the unmissable events for those who long to taste the flavors of our tradition, we recommend:
- in Arquà Petrarca, on October 9th, the Jujube Festival and in November (dates to be confirmed) the Oil Festival;
- in Teolo, on October 16th, the Chestnut Festival;
- in Vicenza, from 21st to 23rd October, CioccolandoVI;
- in Noventa Padovana, from 21st to 25th October, the Festival of Octopus and Fall Flavors;
- in Monselice, on 29th and 30th October, the Feast of Autumn colors and flavors;
- in Vicenza, at Palazzo Valmarana Braga from 28th to 30th October, “Gustus: Wine and Flavors from the Berici Hills”.
In the packed fall programme of our region there is space for handicraft and collectors: why not to combine a visit to the cities of art and historical towns with a tour among vintage oddities? Here is where you find the best antique markets in Veneto:
- the last Sunday of the month, Piazzola sul Brenta
- each second Sunday of the month at Castello di Valbona (PD)
- each third Sunday of the month in Padua, Prato della Valle
- each first Saturday of the month in Vicenza, corso Fogazzaro
And for those who do not want to miss the most important cultural and artistic events of the season, on our page Events in Veneto you will find an updated selection of exhibitions and concerts.
Finally, for the romantics who want to plunge into the colors and lights of Fall on the Euganean Hills, we suggest to take part to the strolls among olive trees and vineyards organized by the Wine Route association: a unique occasion to watch closer the grape and olive harvest. After, the stroll, you can reward yourselves with a pleasant tasting!
