Boccaccio, the 14th century author of the Decamerone, lends his name to the annual Fair that celebrates the art of good living at his native town, Certaldo (Tuscany). The Boccaccesca 2015 event runs from the 2nd - 4th October, three days in which the town is transformed into a top quality gastronomic centre.
For the first time this year, the central Piazza Boccaccio will host an arts and crafts exhibition, alongside the food stands.
Certaldo's twin towns, Neuruppin (Germany), Kanramachi (Japan), Chinon (France) and Ripatransone and Cossignano (Marche Region, Italy) will also be on show with their typical products.
The famous Tuscan wines are on display at the Enoteca di Boccaccesca. With the sole purchase of a special glass created specially for the Fair, visitors can have free tastings of as many wines as they like. What could be more inviting?
