Autumn in the Garda Trentino region finds its most authentic expression in Drena, where the 53rd edition of Maroni in Festa transforms the village into an open-air stage dedicated to its iconic fruit. The Drena Chestnut, renowned for its firm texture and natural sweetness, is the undisputed star of this event, which celebrates the deep bond between the local community and its centuries-old chestnut groves.

On October 24th and 25th, visitors can immerse themselves in a program filled with activities: from guided walks through the chestnut woods to culinary workshops and show cooking sessions that reveal the gastronomic versatility of this prized product. The event is part of the broader Mese del Gusto (Month of Taste), a sensory journey that promotes seasonality and local supply chains.
