Join the festa as LaManna celebrates a jam-packed weekend of giveaways, discounts, and entertainment, including:

- a chance to win a $5,000 LaManna voucher

- free Fornoria pizza –200 pizzas will be given away per day

- family-sized delicious lasagne for only $10 (normally $35)

- Fiat Car Club showing off true Italian pride. (Sunday only)

Family-run grocery mecca and Melbourne stalwart LaManna is unveiling its complete look this Saturday 27 and Sunday 28 July.
In true LaManna fashion, there will be generous giveaways, family activities and tasting stations throughout the store.
 
The Essendon Fields’ foodie haven loves to celebrate in style and, as such, is bringing together its team members and their families along with loyal customers to – as the company motto implores – celebrate the good things in life.
 
Over the weekend, shoppers will be delighted with copious activations for the whole family to enjoy, including face painting, giveaways, discounts, and a visit from the Fiat Car Club from 10am to 2pm on Sunday. There’ll also be various friends of LaManna popping in to present a taste of Italy like Bippi, Del Bocia and so much more.
 
LaManna’s brand new pizza and schiaciatta bar will be giving away 200 pizzas on Saturday and Sunday. Sink your teeth into the gourmet selection on both rossa and bianco pizza bases. How does salami and LaManna’s house-made hot honey and classic margherita with fresh trecce (mozzarella), cherry tomatoes and basil sound?   
 
Visitors will also have a chance to be in the draw to win a $5,000 LaManna voucher by spending $100 or more on their shop in store.
 
LaManna offers a specialty shopping experience where you have access to a patisserie and freshly baked goods, deli, café, fresh seafood and butcher cuts, florist, liquor and groceries all in the one accessible location.
