“Novello e Castagne” is more than a local event — it’s a warm embrace from Torrecuso to its land and people. Organized with heart by the Forum dei Giovani (Youth Forum), this annual celebration transforms the town’s narrow streets into a journey of taste and tradition, starring the much-loved new wine and the iconic Taburno chestnuts.
The atmosphere is authentic and welcoming, filled with glowing fire pits, smiling faces, and glasses raised in celebration of the harvest. Guests can enjoy local specialties, traditional crafts, live music, and the heartfelt hospitality of a community that cherishes its identity.
It’s a moment where past and present blend, and the younger generation plays a leading role in keeping traditions alive while building something new.
“Novello e Castagne” is proof that autumn in Sannio is not just a season — it’s a feeling to be lived, a story to be shared, and a heritage to be preserved.
