The Festival of Tacchie and Porcini Mushrooms takes place during the period of mushrooming, commencing in September when the first rains after the summer heat favour the emergence of new mushrooms.
On the first and the second weekend of October a craft market is held and the festival is enlivened by a parade, music and folk dancing.
There are special guided tours of the Arch Caves.
During the festival the 'Golden Tacchia' Award is given. This is a plaque given to people who have distinguished themselves for social commitment, sports and culture during the year.
There is also an important historical parade that for a few days revives the streets of the centre with the stories of the past. All the population wear historical costumes and local traditions are replayed.
