Dating back to 1987 and originally tied to the feast of patron saint San Pantaleone, this has grown into one of Calabria's largest and most attended sagre, drawing thousands from across the region. Dozens of local volunteers — 'massaie' and townspeople alike, all in matching t-shirts — prepare dialect-named peasant dishes: strangugghi pasta, suriaca beans, roasted peppers with potatoes, local soppressata and 'nduja, and grilled sausage sandwiches, alongside folk music honoring Calabria's rural working traditions.
