Festa da Uva (English: Grape Festival) is a celebration of Italian heritage and culture held biennially in Caxias do Sul, Rio Grande do Sul, in southern Brazil.

During the Festa da Uva, the Caxias do Sul pavilions host attractions mainly from South America, but also from other regions of the world. Visitors taste cheese, grapes and various Brazilian wines.

History[edit]

The Festa da Uva first started in 1931 as a harvest festival. The harvest in Brazil falls in February/March since the country is in the Southern Hemisphere. Colonel Miguel Muratore, Mayor of Caxias do Sul in 1931, gave organizers the necessary support to get the Festa off and running.

The Festa went on hiatus from 1938–1949 because of economic instability in the city and surrounding Italian region, due in part to the effects of World War II, when Italy was an enemy of the Allies. The festival promoted Italian culture.
