About Borghetto Summer Festival

In August, the hamlet of Borghetto in San Martino di Lupari, in the province of Padua, revives its most beloved summer festival: the Agosto Borghettano, a tradition that has lasted since 1975. In Piazza Antonio Mantiero, in honour of Saint Roch, evenings of orchestras for ballroom dancing alternate with the Summer Crock Fest featuring live bands for younger audiences, alongside a rich gastronomic stand. A village festival that intertwines music, gastronomy, and popular devotion, capable of uniting different generations of the Borghetto community.

Half a century of summer festival

The Agosto Borghettano takes place in August in the hamlet of Borghetto in San Martino di Lupari, a municipality in the Alta Padovana area in the province of Padua, in Piazza Antonio Mantiero. Founded in 1975, it is one of the most established summer festivals in the area, organized by the Centro Ricreativo di Borghetto.

In honour of Saint Roch

The festival is linked to the devotion to Saint Roch, one of Borghetto's patrons, whose feast day falls on August 16th. The celebrations, which combine the religious dimension with conviviality and music, are concentrated around this date.

Ballroom dancing and live bands

The programme alternates evenings of orchestras for ballroom dancing, aimed at the traditional audience, with the Summer Crock Fest featuring live bands designed for younger people. To complete the festival, there is a rich gastronomic stand with specialities of Venetian cuisine. An intergenerational format that makes the Agosto Borghettano an event of strong identity for the Borghetto community.
