A food festival in Ortona, Chieti, Abruzzo. It is usually held in August.

Red mullet and fried fish festival in the hamlet of Villa San Nicola.

We publish the month, not the dates: this one comes back every year and the comune sets the days. Confirm with abruzzonews.eu before you travel.

Around this

Everything else on in Abruzzo in August, the whole country in August, or the year in full in The Italian Year. And the town itself: Ortona.

The Sunday letter

The 1,000 Italian towns most travelers skip.

Every Sunday we send one letter. The week's town, what is worth eating there, and when to turn up. It is free, and you can leave whenever you like.
