Six days of tradition around the sanctuary of Campagnamagra
The Campagnamagra Festival, also known as the Feast of Lasagnette col Cunel, takes place every year at the beginning of September in the locality of Campagnamagra in Vigasio, in the province of Verona, around the ancient sanctuary dedicated to the Nativity of the Virgin. It is one of the most cherished festivals in the Villafranca area, an event that links religious tradition and popular conviviality.
The dish that gives the festival its name is lasagnette col cunel, which means lasagnette with rabbit sauce, a specialty of the Veronese peasant tradition. The food stand also offers risotto col tastasal, grilled meats, roast veal, cotechino with sauerkraut, and strauben, fried pastries of Tyrolean origin.
The program spans six days with dancing evenings enlivened by orchestras, dance shows, a funfair, and stalls. Among the most anticipated events are the «Na corsetta in Campagnamagra» running race and the religious moments related to the sanctuary. The festival is organized by Progetto Emera Onlus with the patronage of the Municipality of Vigasio.
