THE GOLDEN CHESTNUT FESTIVAL
Every year, on the second Sunday of October, the Pro Loco of Fénis – an association creating and promoting local activities – organises the “Sagra della Castagna d’Oro” (Golden Chestnut Festival) in the Tzanti de Bouva locality. For the event, children and adults roast chestnuts and then, little by little, consume them. During the afternoon various judges try the chestnuts that the children have roasted in order to decide who is the winner of the contest, awarded the golden chestnut. For the sweet-toothed there are various market stalls decked with delicious chestnut-based sweets. |
