Antica fiera di Santa Caterina

Ancient livestock fair, long since become a stop for tasting new oil.
The Santa Caterina fair is dedicated to olive oil, one of the most delicious products of Lake Garda.
The origins of this fair trace back to the dawn of time.

Over the years, the fair has also become a moment for tasting new oil, eventually transforming into a true oil exhibition and market.
The oil produced here is a fruity extra virgin, with the peculiarity of a very low acidity level, delicate fragrance, and a green-gold color ranging from intense to pronounced due to the high chlorophyll content.

Many food and wine events are linked to this event, organized by local restaurants. Numerous initiatives, all focused on extra virgin olive oil Dop, highlight the tasting courses on oil, aimed at showcasing the organoleptic characteristics of this product. It will also be possible to purchase oil at the mills and local businesses participating in the event.

The Ancient Fair of Santa Caterina takes place on November 25 at Castelletto and is also a religious celebration, with a Holy Mass at the Church of San Carlo Borromeo.

The celebration will continue at the tent structure with food stands and typical dishes, featuring a traditional market and music with a DJ.
