In Torrita di Amatrice, a hamlet of the municipality of Amatrice, the autumn festival dedicated to chestnuts returns for three days. The Area Fiera comes alive with stalls offering traditional dishes such as mezze maniche all'amatriciana, spelt and chestnut soup, roasted chestnuts, arrosticini, sandwiches and french fries, all accompanied by wine, beer, cocktails and mulled wine. The entertainment program includes live music with DJ Manfry, Alta Quota and The Ellis Road Band, carriage rides and children's activities in the "Borgo dei Cavalli". On Saturday, October 17, there will be an exhibition of vintage tractors, while one of the highlights will be the lumberjack triathlon race, with wood sculptures made using a chainsaw.
