Risò, the International Rice Festival in the city of Vercelli, is scheduled from September 11th to 13th, 2026.
In addition to promoting culture and gastronomy, the festival’s objective is to strengthen the city’s identity as the European capital of rice, including on the political front.
The festival is a project that goes beyond the event itself: it was created to enhance rice-growing culture and give a voice to those who safeguard, evolve, and share it with the world every day. An opportunity to discover the territory through its roots and its excellences.
The event includes three days of talks, tours, and workshops, bringing together rice enthusiasts and professionals from all over the world in Vercelli.
