The Festa do Pemento in A Arnoia returns for its 47th edition, to be held from Friday 31 July to Sunday 2 August 2026. Declared a Festival of Galician Tourist Interest, it is the highlight of the Arnoia summer and the finest showcase of our most emblematic product: the Pemento de A Arnoia, protected by its own Protected Geographical Indication (PGI).

For three days, A Arnoia fills its streets with stalls, food, music and activities for all ages centred on the pepper: tastings, competitions, a producers’ fair and a full cultural programme.
