The Chestnut Festival is held in Zocca on the first thee Sundays in October. On this occasion, Zocca becomes a chestnut-flavoured market-exhibition. Numerous food stalls, a craft market and a second-hand market are set up along the streets of the town centre, all accompanied by music and entertainment for adults and children.

The Festival underlines once again the link between Zocca and the chestnut production, already evident in the territory with the presence of a centuries-old chestnut grove and a particular Chestnut Museum with an indoor and outdoor educational path.
