The biggest event in Borgomanero
is the annual appointment with the "Festa dell'Uva" (Grape Feast): a group of cultural,
folk and sports events which take place in September and last about ten days. Many bands perform on stage in the main
square and clowns, jugglers and waders brighten up the main streets. The feast begins with the arrival, at the railway
station, of the local stock characters: Sciura Togna and her servant Carulena (stringently role-played by two
men in female clothes) and ends with the traditional parade of carnival floats whose leading theme is the grape harvest. The
night before the main streets turn into big dining rooms. Very long tables are prepared for all those citizens who want to
eat "polenta e tapulone", the local dish, served with "gorgonzola" and our delicious local wines. |
