About Festa del Villeggiante

For most of the summer, the hamlet of Stoccareddo di Gallio, on the Asiago Plateau Seven Municipalities (Altopiano dei Sette Comuni) in the province of Vicenza, hosts its Festa del Villeggiante (Summer Visitor Festival). Under the Palatenda (covered arena), dance orchestras, a rich food stand, tournaments, walks, and lotteries take place, culminating in the curious Raduno dei Baù (Gathering of the Baù), which attracts many people bearing this very common surname in the village. Organised by Polisportiva Stoccareddo 2000, it is one of the longest-running summer festivals on the plateau.

Stoccareddo's Summer Festival

The Festa del Villeggiante is the big summer festival of Stoccareddo, a hamlet in the Municipality of Gallio on the Asiago Plateau Seven Municipalities (Altopiano dei Sette Comuni), in the province of Vicenza. The event spans several weeks, from July to August, under the village's large Palatenda (covered arena), and has reached over thirty editions, demonstrating its strong roots in the community.

Music, Cuisine, and Tournaments

The heart of the festival lies in its musical evenings featuring the best dance orchestras and the rich food stand, offering traditional mountain dishes. The programme is enhanced by sports tournaments (especially football), walks, lotteries, and entertainment for all ages, creating a festive atmosphere that lasts all summer long.

Stoccareddo, the Village of the Baù

Among the most characteristic events is the Raduno dei Baù: Stoccareddo is indeed known as the "village of the Baù" because almost all its inhabitants have shared the same surname, Baù, for centuries. The gathering brings together many people who share this surname, in a curious and identity-focused event that tells the unique story of this alpine community. Organised by the Polisportiva Stoccareddo 2000, the Festa del Villeggiante is one of the most beloved summer festivals on the Asiago Plateau Seven Municipalities.

Festa del Villeggiante — edition 2026

The Festa del Villeggiante in Stoccareddo di Gallio is eagerly awaited between July and August 2026, with several weeks of events under the Palatenda. The evenings with dance orchestras, the rich food stand, tournaments, walks, and the characteristic Raduno dei Baù, organised by Polisportiva Stoccareddo 2000, will return.
