Traubenkur 2026 in Arco
26 September — 27 September
The Traubenkur, or “grape cure”, is a Habsburg-era wellness ritual that Arco has kept alive for generations, from the days when the town was a holiday destination for Central European nobility seeking fresh air and fresh grapes. In Piazzale Segantini, visitors can watch grapes being pressed with traditional hand-operated presses and taste the freshly extracted must, along with demonstrations and stories about harvests of the past.
The event is part of Mese del Gusto 2026, Garda Trentino’s autumn food and wine festival, running from 25 September to 8 November 2026 with 12 events dedicated to local flavours. It’s a family-friendly event, hosted with the patronage of the Town of Arco.
