From June 12 to 15, 2025, at the Percorso Verde Leonardo Cenci in Perugia, I Love Fish returns: an event dedicated to artisanal fishing, food, and gastronomic culture as tools to connect people, territories and knowledge. The festival offers a journey through more than fifty dishes from tradition and innovation, created with contributions from some of the best culinary establishments in Umbria and beyond, in dialogue with artisanal fishing cooperatives.

In this open and inclusive space, the festival also becomes a venue for discussion. Each day features conversations with experts, fishermen and citizens on the future of inland and marine waters, climate change, and the tropicalization of the Mediterranean. The program also includes showcooking, workshops and masterclasses with chefs and industry professionals such as L’Acciuga, Conad Sapori&Dintorni and the TerreMani project.

Every evening, the festival continues with live music in collaboration with Strozza Music Fest, featuring Suavecito (Thursday 12), 80’s vs 90’s by Friday I’m in Rock (Friday 13), Bounce Party (Saturday 14) and Sunset by The Cage (Sunday 15).
