From October 1st to 11th 2026, Rivera di Almese hosts the 27th edition of "Arte, Artigianato, Musica e… Siole Pien-e", the festival celebrating the flat blonde onion from Piedmont in the heart of the patron saint festivities. Eleven days of events spread across restaurants, public spaces and meeting places, with a program mixing gastronomy, art, craftsmanship, music and local traditions. The signature dish is siole pien-e, stuffed onions prepared according to the traditional recipe, available on pre-order in convenient take-away trays. Alongside tastings, the event features art exhibitions, children's entertainment, sports tournaments, vintage car rallies, guided tours of the Medieval Tower and a dinner with theatrical performance. All events are confirmed even in bad weather thanks to ample indoor spaces.
