The pumpkin is one of the main dishes of the Lower Reggio Emilia cuisine. Every year the town of Reggiolo dedicates a festival to it to enhance this gastronomic speciality’s reputation.
During the Pumpkin Festival several tastings and pumpkin specialities take place at local restaurants.
Medieval shows, falconry, knights' tournaments and ancient crafts are scheduled in the town centre and in Parco Salici.
