Tancas Abertas

During the festival, the streets of the town come alive with the intense aroma of dishes based on pork, prepared according to recipes passed down from generation to generation.

The undisputed protagonist is the "lardajolu", a delicious local salami made from pork belly, flavored with Mediterranean spices and aged to enhance its fragrance and tenderness. Accompanied by the crunchy "carasau" bread and the pecorino cheeses produced by local shepherds, the "lardajolu" represents a true triumph of taste and authenticity.

But "Gioja 'e Lardajolu" is not just a gastronomic celebration. It is an opportunity to rediscover popular traditions and experience moments of community gathering.

In addition to the flavors and music, this festival offers visitors the chance to learn about local craftsmanship.
Exhibitors showcase handmade items, such as Sardinian knives, woven fabrics, and cork objects, symbols of the creativity and skill of the artisans of Nugheddu San Nicolò.
