Autumn Fair in Montseny and Flabiol Festival in Arbúcies

The Autumn Fair in Montseny and the Flabiol Festival in Arbúcies come together this weekend to experience gastronomy , heritage, nature, music, mushrooms, chestnuts, and crafts.

The Arbúcies Autumn Fair is one of the major annual events that fills the town with life, aromas, and traditions. The celebration highlights the natural and cultural richness of the Montseny region, inviting visitors to discover the most authentic products from this privileged setting. The craft and local produce market is one of the main attractions of the fair, with a wide variety of offerings ranging from homemade sweets to unique creations from the valley's artisans.

The festival isn't limited to shopping and tasting: workshops, children's activities, and demonstrations of traditional crafts turn the town into a great place for socializing and learning. Little ones can enjoy stories, tales, and games, while adults have the opportunity to participate in activities related to seasonal cuisine.

The chestnut festival is undoubtedly one of the most anticipated moments, with chestnut cooking workshops, autumn dish tastings, and a snack competition that sparks the culinary creativity of participants. Mushrooms, chestnuts, and seasonal recipes take center stage in a warm, family-friendly atmosphere.

And, on the other hand, the Arbúcies Flabiol Festival is a gathering of flabiolaires that has been held continuously since 1985 in this town in the La Selva region, at the foot of Montseny Mountain, in early November. Workshops, exhibitions, and concerts help keep alive the passion for this instrument so deeply rooted in the region.

The Autumn Stoves round out the program with the Arbúcies Valley Dessert and Snack Competition, now in its third year. It's an opportunity for culinary enthusiasts to showcase their talent with creations made with local, seasonal produce.
