The historical Sagra del Folpo (Octopus Fair)

Since the 18th century, Noventa Padovana plays host to the traditional October fair that used to be called ‘Autumn Fair‘. Through the years, however, thanks to the century-old ties with Venice, the main focus has been around seafood and specifically around octopus that later gave the name to the event.

Boiled octopus is served with garlic, oil and parsley and can be found in food stalls and kiosks of octopus vendors, that in Venetian dialect are called folpàri (from folpo, octopus). As well as the traditional folpo, it is easy to find a wide array of local seafood specialities such as the “masenette” or “bovoletti”, that are often served with plenty of wine or beer.

The event is much more than a foodies-must as it offers a wide range of activities, music and dances that cater for all tastes and ages and draws to its close with a spectacular firework display.
