About Fair of Saint Gregory

Every March, Valdobbiadene transforms into the capital of hill farming with the Ancient Fair of Saint Gregory, one of the most important fairs in the Veneto region. Hundreds of exhibitors fill the historic center with agricultural machinery, small local productions, a wine bar, exhibitions of engines and knives, concerts, and food. Three days of celebration centered around Saint Gregory the Great, the town's patron saint, attracting over a hundred thousand visitors among the Prosecco hills.

A fair dedicated to hill farming

The Ancient Fair of Saint Gregory is one of the most important events in the calendar of Valdobbiadene, in the province of Treviso. Dedicated to hill farming and the promotion of the territory, it brings together hundreds of exhibitors from all over Italy and unfolds along the streets of the historic center and the town's squares, in the heart of the UNESCO World Heritage Prosecco hills.

Historic center in celebration

The fair occupies the entire town with thematic distribution: agricultural machinery and sector suppliers in the central streets; small local productions and Italian products in Piazza Marconi; the wine bar with tastings in the municipal loggia; the knife exhibition at Palazzo Celestino Piva; the engine and hobby exhibition at Villa dei Cedri. Concerts are held in the church of Sant'Egidio.
