The Risotto Festival brings Piazza Grande in Locarno to life with a lively food celebration, where chefs and local associations compete to prepare a wide variety of risotto recipes, offered to the public for tasting. For visitors, it is the perfect opportunity to enjoy local cuisine in a welcoming atmosphere enhanced by live music, entertainment and a wine bar.

The event also extends beyond the square thanks to “Caccia al risotto”, an initiative that invites visitors to discover restaurants throughout the Canton of Ticino through specially created menus. It is an ideal stop for anyone wishing to combine a visit to Locarno’s town centre with an authentic Ticino food and wine experience.
