About August Fair
The August Fair of San Giacomo delle Segnate
The August Fair is the grand patronal fair of San Giacomo delle Segnate, a municipality in the province of Mantua in the Oltrepò Mantovano area. It takes place in mid-August in honor of the patron saint Saint James the Apostle (whose liturgical feast day is July 25th) and is organized by Pro Loco Segnate with the patronage of the municipal administration.
A Week of Festivities
The fair enlivens the town for several days with a rich program: the funfair, the entertainment area in the church square, tournaments, charity raffles, and numerous initiatives. The food stall is open every evening with traditional Mantuan dishes and quality cuisine.
Pumpkin Tortelli, Run, and Fireworks
