The culture, cuisine and history of Italy is celebrated each autumn in the Dayton area with the Italian Fall Festa, held outside Kettering’s Bella Villa Hall. The event will return for its 49th year Friday, Sept. 11 through Sunday, Sept. 13.
“You really feel like you’re just in a giant park at a family reunion,” said Festival Chairman Brian Andzik. “Everyone’s sitting there at the tables, enjoying their food and drinks. They’ll stay there all day.”
