Festivals
Festivals and village fairs allow you to encounter Umbria at a particular moment, when the villages step out of their everyday life and fill with voices, open-air tables, music, and shared moments. They are occasions different from a traditional visit, because you observe the territory during unique events.
From Torre del Nera, it is possible to reach events connected to culture, music, gastronomy, and popular traditions. Some belong to cities known throughout Italy, others preserve a more local and intimate character. In both cases, the experience allows you to add a different moment to your stay, made of encounter and participation. When you return to Scheggino, you will not simply have visited a place, but shared in its life for a few hours.

Diamante Nero is the market exhibition in Scheggino dedicated to enhancing the value of truffle and the lands where it is cultivated. The village celebrates one of the most identity-forming products of the Valnerina through producers, tastings, encounters, and moments connected to the gastronomic culture of the territory.
For those staying at Torre del Nera, it is a particularly meaningful event because it takes place right in the village. Scheggino shows its relationship with truffle in the lanes, in the squares, and at the table, transforming a local tradition into an occasion for shared discovery.
Le Gaite of Bevagna bring the village back into the memory of the Middle Ages, not as a simple reenactment, but through work, workshops, trades, and the life of ancient communities. During the event, the town becomes a place to move through by following demonstrations, scenes of daily life, and flavors tied to tradition.
The experience is especially suited to those seeking concrete contact with history. Bevagna does not limit itself to telling the past: it sets it in motion again, making it pass through the hands of artisans, the streets of the village, and the participation of those who live there.
The Festival dei Due Mondi is one of Umbria’s most important cultural events. During the days of the festival, theaters, squares, churches, and historic palaces in Spoleto become places of performance, encounter, and discovery.
Taking part in an evening of the festival allows you to experience the city at a moment when art enters everyday spaces. From Torre del Nera, Spoleto is a nearby and natural destination for those who wish to combine a stay in the village with a cultural experience of international scope.
Umbria Jazz brings a different atmosphere to the region, made of concerts, crowded streets, and music moving through urban spaces. It is a livelier experience, ideal for those who wish to devote a day or an evening to one of Umbria’s most recognized events.
And after a day among concerts and city streets, the return to Scheggino restores balance to the day, a return to the calm and silence of the village.
Eurochocolate brings to Perugia one of the most recognizable events of the Umbrian autumn. The historic center comes alive with stands, tastings, workshops, and initiatives dedicated to chocolate, transforming the city into an indulgent route through squares and historic streets.
For those staying at Torre del Nera, it is an opportunity to devote a day to Perugia and experience a festival linked to taste, creativity, and the Italian confectionery tradition.
Nero Norcia is one of the events most closely tied to black truffle and the products of the Valnerina. Taste is the protagonist, but the experience does not end with the tasting. Truffle carries with it the woods, the search, the work of those who know the land and know how to recognize what remains hidden.
Visiting Norcia during this event means entering a deeply rooted gastronomic story. The products, tastings, and encounters with producers allow you to better understand an important part of Umbrian identity, where food still preserves a direct bond with the season and with the territory.
