Alongside the food, the festival features stalls selling local specialities, traditional crafts and creative handmade items, offering visitors a journey through flavours, craftsmanship and rural culture. The village streets come alive with live music, entertainment and activities designed for children and families, creating a festive and welcoming atmosphere.
