About Assumption Festival

The Assumption Festival is the Ferragosto festival of the La Pieve district in Chiampo, in honor of Saint Mary of the Assumption into Heaven, patron saint of the town. Four days that intertwine the religious program, with masses and the celebration of August 15th presided over by the Bishop of Vicenza, and the festive program, with food stands, music, round dancing, and fireworks.

The Ferragosto festival in Pieve di Chiampo

In the La Pieve district of Chiampo, in the province of Vicenza, Ferragosto coincides with the Assumption Festival, dedicated to Saint Mary of the Assumption into Heaven, patron saint of the town along with Saint Martin. It is one of the most heartfelt festivals of the Chiampo summer, which unites the religious and popular dimensions over four days around August 15th.

The religious program

The sacred part celebrates the Solemnity of the Assumption with moments of prayer, Holy Masses, and confessions on all days of the festival. The climax is the celebration on August 15th, presided over by the Bishop of Vicenza, which draws the community together in devotion to Mary.

Gastronomy, music, and celebration

On the festive side, the food stand opens every evening from 6:30 PM with local specialties—from grilled pork chop to pasta with trout sauce, to Vicenza-style cod—while the program offers evenings of live music and DJ sets, the beer pong tournament, the traditional round dancing on August 15th, and the unmissable fireworks display. A festival that blends the sacred and the profane in the heart of the Chiampo Valley.
