The Fiera del Formaggio di Fossa is held in Sogliano sul Rubicone on the last two Sundays of November and the first Sunday of December. The cheese, made from local raw materials, is lightly matured and then placed in sandstone pits of very ancient origin: as tradition dictates, it goes into the pits in March and the precious haul is recovered in November. The fair revives the tradition of the sfossatura (the cheese's recovery from the pits), with food stalls and cheese tastings paired with other local specialities such as candied figs, savòr and piadina romagnola.
