An appointment in Casteggio to savor the traditional flavors of autumn in the Oltrepò Pavese
Casteggio celebrates the authentic scents and flavors of autumn with the 39th Truffle and Honey Fair, an unmissable event dedicated to two local excellences of the Oltrepò Pavese: truffles and honey.

From the early morning, exhibitors will fill the streets of Casteggio with local products, culinary specialties, and tasting sessions showcasing the region’s finest flavors.

In the afternoon, don’t miss the traditional truffle-hunting competition, featuring skilled dogs and their handlers — the true protagonists of this timeless bond between humans and nature. The awards ceremony will follow, bringing the event to a close in a festive atmosphere.
The Truffle and Honey Fair is a family-friendly event, perfect for those who wish to experience the authenticity of the Oltrepò Pavese, discovering its flavors, traditions, and warm hospitality.
