About Assunta Festival in Facca

In August, the hamlet of Facca, in Cittadella (Padua province), becomes the queen of liscio. The Sagra dell'Assunta, also known as Facca Summer Fest, features orchestras and dancing evenings every night, dance schools, and live music, alongside a rich gastronomic stand with cod gnocchi, grilled meats, fried fish, and wines from the Euganean Hills. Free admission, a funfair, and a charity raffle complete the celebration.

The queen of liscio in the Alta Padovana region

The Assunta Festival in Facca, now also known as Facca Summer Fest, is one of the liveliest summer festivals in the Alta Padovana region. Facca is a hamlet of Cittadella, in the province of Padua, and every August it becomes a focal point for liscio dance enthusiasts from the Veneto region.

Music and dancing every evening

The heart of the festival is the music: orchestras and dancing evenings every night, with dance schools and live music performances. This is what gives it the reputation of "Facca, queen of liscio", an open-air dance floor that attracts enthusiasts from neighboring towns as well.

Gastronomy and entertainment

The gastronomic stand lives up to Venetian tradition: cod gnocchi, grilled meats, foal steak, fried fish, and wines from the Euganean Hills. Throughout the festival, there is a funfair, a roller skating rink, and a charity raffle. Admission is free, in line with the popular and welcoming spirit of the festival.
