The White truffle fair in Sant’Agata Feltria in Emilia Romagna is a large gathering every year in October that brings together thousands of mushroom and truffle lovers. All the streets, the squares and corners of the Medieval hamlets fill with market stalls and craft fairs with products made of mushrooms, truffles, honey, dried, fresh herbs and local produce, an occasion not to be missed to enjoy the numerous local specialities of the season.

The White Truffle National Fair in Acqualagna, held in the Marches in November is the most important event in the city which over time has become the Truffle Capital. Every year thousands of Italian and foreign visitors arrange to meet in Acqualagna in order to admire, purchase and smell kilos of fresh truffles, as well as other quality produce such as salami, wine, honey and cheese. The fair is also a great window for the public to admire international chefs who work and cook in a real “open air” kitchen preparing plates with a unique flavour that are flavoured with history and tradition.

However if you aren’t attracted by fairs and markets but would still like to taste the flavours of autumn… we advise you to stay at the All Inclusive Hotels…you will definitely not be disappointed and neither will your taste buds!

If you are in Romagna, in an All Inclusive Hotel, you can’t miss the fabulous Sangiovese di Romagna DOC, produced in the areas of Bologna, Forlì, Ravenna and Rimini. The Sangiovese is one of the most cultivated grapes in Italy and it is also one of the most loved traditional local wines. In our All Inclusive Hotels in Romagna, you can taste this aromatic red wine, with a dry and harmonious flavour, pairing it with the strong local flavours of salami, roast meats, game and grilled meat.

If you are in the Marches don’t miss the Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi, a typical grape that only grows in this specific area, thanks to the windy hills and the composition of the soil. The All Inclusive hotels in the Marches advise you to pair the wine with boiled meat, mushrooms, truffles, fried food and above all fish.

The mountains in Selvino are full of surprises for wine lovers. We would suggest the Moscato di Scanzo, a DOCG wine (the only DOCG in the Bergamo area) whose production is only permitted in the hilly area of the Scanzorosciate Municipality in the province of Bergamo. The history of this wine is long and legend has it that this product was one of the most expensive in the whole world in 1700 and was even quoted on the London stock exchange. Amongst the food advised to be eaten with it are cheeses – taleggio and goat’s cheese – but it also gives excellent results with dark chocolate. Campania is the sun kissed land and the cultivation of vineyards there has ancient origins.  The All Inclusive Hotels in this region can offer the Greco di Tufo wine that has earned its DOCG recognition in 2003. Its aromas reminiscent of peach and bitter almond and it is suitable to be paired with roasted shellfish, refined dishes based around grilled fish, white fish soups, seafood. If it is aged for two years it is also perfect with pappardelle with porcini mushrooms, while traditionally and, finally, the combination with pasta and cabbage and freshly cooked sea bass.

Have you ever tried fossa cheese? Or tasted extra-virgin olive oil straight from the mill? Or the cherry tomatoes of Vesuvius freshly picked from the vine? What about the delicious Alpine cheese known as   Formai de Mut di malga? Or the stuffed pasta called cassoncelli alla bergamasca, or indeed home-made limoncello liqueur? Or else sardoncini arrostiti sul testo (little sardines roasted on the slab)? These would go well with a bottle of Pagadebit: a light, white wine which is perfect for summer evenings. Otherwise you really should try the genuine Romagna piada bread baked on a terracotta slab, or savour red wines such as Rosso Conero, or try unusual dishes like brodetto senigalliese (fish soup), perhaps accompanied by a glass of chilled Bianchello del Metauro… Is your mouth starting to water?

There will be no lack of fun for children and adults, what with the many services of All Inclusive quality! Everything is possible, from parties at the hotels to activities on the beach and from village festivals to good old August bank holiday fun. The menu on this summer equivalent of New Year’s Day will be rich and varied: everything that could be done will be done. Anyone staying at an All Inclusive Hotel should know that particular day would be celebrated in style. The many hotels in the various regions of Italy will offer their most typical specialities: with tasting of fish dishes at hotels on the coast and traditional dishes made with fresh ingredients from the land at the hotels in the mountains.

What is truly all-inclusive on the day, however, is the hoteliers’ fun and inventive interpretation of the day of celebration.

On the cards each year – as well as the great food – are swimming pool parties, relaxation at the wellness centres, a host of excursions, fireworks on the beach, boat outings, night walks to admire the stars and all the magic of a night marking the apex of summer events.

Nor should we forget the most typical traditions of “Ferragosto”. At the sea, particularly in the 1980s, you had the customary game of the “gavettone”: a bucket of icy water sparing no-one on the street and beach. The “gavettone” is now slightly more subdued and limited only to the beach. While in the mountains, you will not fail to miss the stunning fireworks which you can admire as you indulge in the very finest dinner made with the very best of typical, seasonal ingredients.

It is now holiday time and June is the perfect time for all the family: when you can wind down after those long days studying at school and enjoy some summer relaxation. All Inclusive Hotels is a consortium that knows exactly what holidaying families most want. The hotels that make up the group, therefore, cater specifically for families, with services and all comforts for parents and their children. Choose your destination of preference in the mountains or on the coast; and at each hotel you will find a restaurant that considers the needs of children, and relaxation for parents, and activities for all ages and at flexible times. All the best offers for families are at All Inclusive Hotels!

And there is so much more to an all-inclusive family holiday! An increasing number of the hotels in the Group are tailoring their hospitality to let families live a real fairy-tale. There are suites named after Snow White, Alice in Wonderland or the Arabian Nights: magical, fairy-tale places with a large bed for seven people, tea tables that disappear into the walls, Arabic lettering and beautiful embellishments. And not only. The magic continues with rooms dedicated to the world under the sea and decorated with marine characters, where you can live your dreams both day and night.

This year, the Adriatic Riviera is celebrating the sixth edition of the “Notte Rosa” (Pink Night). From Cattolica to Comacchio, there will be 110 km of partying, to include Rimini, Riccione, Bellaria, Cesenatico and Ravenna, in addition to other towns and villages.

It will finish with breakfast on the sand, to include those famous doughnuts!

However, the real magic moment of the Notte Rosa will be the firework displays which will light up the whole of the Riviera at midnight on Friday 1st, with amazing colours and vivid set pieces reflecting in the water, just like an amazing dream!
