Festa Patronale dei Santi Pietro e Paolo - Alzate Brianza

The patron saints of Alzate Brianza

On June 29th, the community of Alzate Brianza, in the province of Como, celebrates its patron saints, the apostles Peter and Paul. The date coincides with the liturgical solemnity of the two saints and is one of the highlights of the year for the town, which dedicates its Parish Church to the two apostles.

Between liturgy and community celebration

The patronal festival combines the religious dimension with the popular one: alongside the celebrations and the solemn Mass, there are moments of conviviality that have always characterized the patron saint festivals in Brianza. It is an occasion for the inhabitants of Alzate and nearby parishes, united in the Pastoral Community of the Blessed Virgin of Rogoredo, which also includes Anzano del Parco, Fabbrica Durini, and Alserio, to come together.

A tradition rooted in the territory

Devotion to Saints Peter and Paul is part of the identity of Alzate Brianza, a town in the Como area of Brianza also known for its historic Secular Fair of the Madonna of Rogoredo. The festival on June 29th, alongside the September fair, represents one of the two major events that mark the community's life throughout the year.
