Time is right for the FIGS Festival


8-9-10-11 September 2016 from Casale Litta (VA) :

Back three years after the long-awaited Festival of Figs in Casale Litta (VA), now in its fourteenth year.

A festival that attracts large audiences from all neighboring provinces. The country is in turmoil for the organization of the festively decorated courtyards, where you can taste typical dishes and delicacies made from figs, the real stars of the event.

Respecting the tradition, the country will evoke the atmosphere of the past: the historian oven dated 1792, restored thanks to the contributions of the previous editions, will light up for the opportunity to churn out the typical "brüsela cui fich" (brüsela with figs).

A rich program of yesterday and today music to listen and eating traditional dishes, in an atmosphere that evokes the past. Starting from Thursday with DJ Vigor, Fridays with Paolo Argento and the Monkeyscream Cabarock and Saturday to attend the fascinating fireworks in collaboration with Setti Fireworks.

Sunday will start early in the morning with crafts market between the courts of the country. Guests can attend a race of historic cars and, after lunch, in the name of tradition, your children will have fun with numerous activities including magic shows, pony rides, petting zoo. 

The day will continue with boxing demonstrations, competitions with chainsaw cutting and at 16.30, directly from Italy's Got Talent, will perform the Grugliasco Gymnastic Company with acrobatics and circus atmosphere.

The day will continue with the trademark of the "Matt de Casàa" (the organizers of the event for this year): "L'Aperitivo del Viandante" (The Aperitif of the Wayfarer), accompanied by the music of Mickey&Cindy.

Let yourself be enchanted by the rural atmosphere, the corners art, photography and flowers...
