Please note: past event


Since 13rd September to 8th October 2017 Isola della Scala has hosted the 51th edition of the Rice Fair which is one of the most important event for the enterprises in the sector and for italian risotto lovers

The Rice Fair in Isola della Scala 2017, better known as "The city of the rice", only 20 minutes away from Verona, is one of the most loved and most popular event in Italy. The goal is the enhancement and promotion of the "Nano rice Vialone Veronese IGP", the local product par excellence and the only rice of the European Community that has been awarded PGI status.

The "Palariso", the modern and technological building that has hosted the Rice Fair for many years, covers about 90.000 mq and lodges many wine and food contests, many stands for the rice-selling and for tasting several plates realized by many exhibitors. Furthermore, you can take part to guided tours which are aimed to the promotion of the "Strada del Riso" (Street of the rice) lying among rice fields and old historical boroughs full of traditions, local rice-mill and typical products from rice.

The Rice Fair is a very expected event carefully prepared and great passion for the local products and for the territory. This is a moment not to be wasted in the Regione Veneto's appointment book and we are quite sure the quality of the rice, the local products and wine are the best. In addition, the Fair will host roundtables, tourist trails, culinary labs for children and Risitaly that offers Italian recipesi consigliamo for risotto and theopportunity to visit a territory full of history, culture, traditions and good food.
