Baccanale returns from October 24th to November 15th, a festival dedicated to food culture that, for forty years, has been one of the most anticipated autumn events, not only for the city of Imola but for the entire surrounding area.

This year’s theme is “Encounters: Italian Cuisine Without Borders”—an invitation to explore the many facets of Italian cuisine. It is, in fact, “borderless,” born from diverse influences and a melting pot of knowledge, flavors, and customs that have blended to create something truly distinctive.

Every year, Baccanale presents different and unusual shades of taste, gastronomy and food pleasures.

The themed menus, designed by the many restaurants in the area, are accompanied by entertainment, live shows and events in the streets and squares, transforming Imola and nearby areas into an outdoor stage with food as the star.
