A Private Sagra: Experience a Truly Authentic Italian Village for your own Exclusive Event

Traditional Sagre are popular village fairs full of vibrant, joyful celebrations honouring local communities and the carefree, fun-loving spirit of Italy. These events are deeply rooted in local customs and steeped in tradition, where the star players are good food, rousing music and the warm, welcoming hospitality provided by all in the marvellous setting of a traditional lively Italian village. With Escapade, you can go one step further and offer your guests an absolutely unforgettable experience by hosting a private sagra, tailor-made just for them.

Imagine a moment of full immersion in the daily life of a typical Italian village. Each season comes around with its own renewed celebration full of flavours, sounds, and authentic encounters. Sagre epitomise the communal spirit in rural culture - an opportunity to savour traditional dishes, taste fine wines, and feel part of a welcoming community.

One of our private Sagre can be hosted in Sicily, in an enchanting mediaeval village. Its stone-paved alleys, tranquil squares, and timeless atmosphere create the perfect setting for a unique and deeply engaging experience.

The delightful historic Major Square is adorned with festive trimmings to become a sea of colour to the sounds of vibrant music. The air fills with the timeless charm of an authentic village celebration, with its own especially exclusive touch.

The scent of traditional Sicilian cuisine drifts through the air. A local shepherd shares stories of times gone by as he offers slices of mature cheese to taste, a baker prepares fragrant, freshly baked bread from a wood-fired oven, and a Sicilian matri (mother) makes hand-made maccheroni under the guests’ captivated gaze. Tables overflow with local specialities and fine wines, as musicians play their catchy melodies that invite everyone to dance.

A private sagra is more than just an event - it’s a sensory and cultural journey that leaves a lasting impression on all those who take part.  It’s a rare opportunity to become fully embraced by authentic Italian traditions, leaving the usual tourist routes far behind, and experience an evening steeped in history, pure magic, and sheer joy.

If you want to offer your guests a truly outstanding experience, then enjoy the spectacular atmosphere of an authentic Italian sagra. Italy and its magic can be experienced when you embrace its truest traditions.
