About Assunta Festival

Every year around August 15th, the village of Raossi in Vallarsa celebrates the Assunta Festival, a Ferragosto event that blends devotion to the Virgin Mary with local conviviality. Organized by the Comitato Raossi Iniziative, the festival brings the valley's main town to life with food stalls, music, and community gatherings in the heart of the Trentino Vallagarina, at the foot of the Pasubio massif.

The Assunta Festival in Raossi

The Assunta Festival is the Ferragosto celebration held in the village of Raossi, the main town of the Vallarsa municipality in the province of Trento. Every year, around August 15th, the community gathers to celebrate the Assumption of Mary, a deeply felt occasion in the villages of the Trentino mountains. The event is promoted by the Comitato Raossi Iniziative, the recreational association that enlivens village life throughout the year.

A festival between devotion and conviviality

In the best tradition of village festivals, the Assunta Festival weaves together religious observance and celebration. The day of Ferragosto is marked by celebrations in honor of the Madonna Assunta, the patron of the event, followed by festivities featuring food stalls set up by committee volunteers, music, and social gatherings for all ages. It is an occasion when the small village fills with people: residents, vacationers, and visitors who choose Vallarsa for their summer holidays.

Raossi and Vallarsa

Raossi is the main center of Vallarsa, a side valley of the Vallagarina nestled between the Pasubio group and the Piccole Dolomiti, just a few kilometers from Rovereto. A land marked by the history of the Great War and rich in nature, Vallarsa experiences a season of widespread events in its numerous hamlets during the summer, and the Assunta Festival represents one of the most anticipated moments of the Ferragosto calendar in Trentino-Alto Adige.

A summer community event

The festival is part of the rich summer program of Vallarsa, consisting of village feasts, cultural initiatives, and social moments that involve the entire valley. Participating means experiencing the authentic atmosphere of a mountain festival, where the tradition of the Assunta is renewed from generation to generation thanks to the commitment of volunteers.

Information

The Assunta Festival takes place in the village of Raossi, in the municipality of Vallarsa. For the detailed program and updates, it is recommended to check the channels of the Municipality of Vallarsa and the Visit Vallarsa website.
