The Ferragosto feast in the Madonnetta district of Sarcedo, with Venetian cuisine, music, and dancing under the stars
The Assumption Festival is the most cherished summer event in the Madonnetta district of Sarcedo, a town in the Vicenza foothills at the foot of the Asiago Plateau, in the province of Vicenza. The festival celebrates the Assumption of Mary, honored on August 15th, and traditionally takes place around Ferragosto, in Piazza A. Vellere.
The festival is organized by the Pastoral Unit of Sarcedo with the patronage of the Municipality of Sarcedo, and is open to all citizens. Admission is free. In a close-knit district like Madonnetta, the Assumption Festival is above all a moment for the community, where generations come together around the table and the dance floor in the heart of the Vicenza summer.
The Assumption Festival 2026 in Madonnetta di Sarcedo is expected during the Ferragosto holidays, following the custom of holding the festival around August 14-17 in Piazza A. Vellere. The event, organized by the Pastoral Unit of Sarcedo with the patronage of the Municipality, offers every evening a food stand with typical Venetian cuisine, music and dancing, a charity raffle, and a fair trade market. Free admission.

The festival follows the traditional structure: food stand with Venetian cuisine open every evening, dance nights with music and dancing under the stars, charity raffle, and fair trade market.
