The
Festa do Pemento de A Arnoia is an officially
declared Festival of Galician Tourist Interest (Festa de Interese Turístico de Galicia), a distinction that places it among the
great food festivals of Galicia. Every summer, thousands of people come to
A Arnoia (in the
O Ribeiro region, Ourense) to enjoy three days around the
Arnoia pepper, which holds a
Protected Geographical Indication (P.G.I.), in a celebration that blends
food, music and tradition. If you are looking for
festivals of tourist interest in Galicia or
pepper festivals, this is a must in the
Galician summer calendar. Discover the
programme and activities, the
«all about the pepper» food, the
Arnoia pepper and
A Arnoia and O Ribeiro. More about
