Delta Welcome Events Leave a comment
Festival della Natura 2018

After the success of the first edition, the Nature Festival 2018 scheduled from 19th October to 4th November will live its second edition with a special study on the gastronomic pearls of the Po Delta: rice, hemp, truffles, mussels, clams and oysters.

Photographic exhibitions and thematic conferences, food and wine stands and tastings will be organized inside the Pomposa Abbey and the Este Castle of Mesola; exceptional testimonials will tell us about their cycling and birdwatching experience; guided tours and excursions by boat and by bicycle to discover the territory of the Po Delta Park, already declared a World Heritage Site and recently awarded with the recognition of the Po Delta Biosphere Reserve of the Unesco MAB program, will complete the varied tourist offer .

The event that will take place in the territory of the Municipalities of Codigoro, Mesola and Goro aims to de-seasonalize the local tourist offer by creating a bridge between the months of September and October and the holiday of 1st November.

Some advances on the program:

From 19th to 21st October Rice Days at Pomposa Abbey – Risotto tasting.

From 26th to 28th October Hemp Days at the Pomposa Abbey and the Canneviè Oasis – tasting of products based on Hemp

From 1st to 4th November Autumn Flavors at the Este Castle of Mesola – Tasting of products based on truffles and based on mussels, clams and oysters

Stay tuned!
