Two weekends of music, flavours, and Carnival by Night in the parish of Saccolongo
The Festa di Primavera is the major event that the parish of Santa Maria Assunta di Saccolongo, in the province of Padua, organises between the end of May and the beginning of June. Spread over two weekends, the festival combines conviviality, music, and gastronomy, enlivening the town centre for several days.
The most spectacular moment is the "Saccolongo Carnival by Night": a night-time parade of allegorical floats that cross the streets of the centre, offering an unusual spectacle of lights and colours for the spring season. An event that draws crowds from all over the Paduan area.
Every evening the festival offers live music and shows, accompanied by the opening of the food stand. On the menu are traditional Venetian dishes, pizza service, draft beer, and a selection of wines from the Euganean Hills, the hills that characterise this corner of the province. Organised by the parish with the Circolo NOI, it is one of the most beloved events in the Saccolongo community.
From May 29 to June 7, 2026 (with a break on June 3 and 4), the parish of Santa Maria Assunta in Saccolongo hosts the Festa di Primavera. Two weekends of music, shows, and gastronomic specialities, with a programme designed for conviviality. Among the highlights is the Saccolongo Carnival by Night on Saturday, May 30.
