\u201cSapori Pro Loco<\/b> confirms itself as a showcase of excellence,\u201d said Pietro De Marchi<\/b>, president of the Unpli Regional Committee of Friuli Venezia Giulia, \u201ccapable of combining taste, tradition, and the great value of volunteering. At Villa Manin, within the splendid setting of its exedrae, there will once again be a treasure chest where visitors can taste the best of Friuli Venezia Giulia\u2019s food and wine, thanks to the commitment of our Pro Loco associations. With passion, they safeguard and share our local excellence and the gastronomic identity of our land. Thank you to everyone who supports us, starting with the Region through the Io sono Friuli Venezia Giulia<\/i> area, which returns to host numerous events that further enrich the program. We have designed a wide range of activities for all ages, including plenty of moments dedicated to families.\u201d<\/p>

\u201cSapori Pro Loco<\/b>,\u201d emphasized the President of the Regional Council of Friuli Venezia Giulia, Mauro Bordin<\/b>, \u201crepresents one of the most authentic examples of how volunteering can promote and showcase Friuli Venezia Giulia through its traditions, flavors, and the cultural heritage of local communities. Behind every stand, every dish, and every initiative, there are men and women, young girls and boys who dedicate their time, passion, and skills to preserve the identity of our territory and pass it on to future generations. Tourism and local promotion are a true team effort, bringing together Pro Loco associations, institutions, organizations, and communities in a shared mission capable of creating value, hospitality, and opportunities. Events like this prove that volunteering is not just about collaboration, but a tangible social force that blends memory and innovation, enhancing local excellence and turning Villa Manin into a symbolic place of gathering, participation, and promotion for Friuli Venezia Giulia.\u201d<\/p>

\u201cSapori Pro Loco<\/b>,\u201d stated the Regional Councilor for Productive Activities and Tourism, Sergio Emidio Bini<\/b>, \u201cis one of the most authentic events in Friuli Venezia Giulia: a festival born from the grassroots, from the daily passion and commitment of volunteers, which over time has become a benchmark event for the entire region and the North-East. Now in its twenty-third edition, the event returns to Villa Manin with the participation of numerous regional Pro Loco associations, each bringing flavors, traditions, and identities that together form the extraordinary mosaic of our land. For this reason, the Region is present again this year with the Io sono Friuli Venezia Giulia<\/i> space, which is not only a showcase for local excellence but a lively meeting place, featuring events dedicated to food, wine, and traditions, as well as live performances animating both weekends of the festival.\u201d<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
