On June 29th, the patron saint's festival in the upper village of Cosio d'Arroscia
The Festival of Saints Peter and Paul is celebrated every year on June 29th in Cosio d'Arroscia, a mountain village in the upper Arroscia Valley, in the province of Imperia. The event, fixed in the liturgical calendar, is dedicated to the two apostles who are the patron saints of the village and represents one of the most important moments of the year for the local community.
Cosio d'Arroscia is a small municipality in the Imperia hinterland, on the border with Piedmont, immersed in a mountain landscape that makes it a popular destination for lovers of nature and slow tourism. The patron saint's festival retains the genuine character of village celebrations, where the bond between faith, community, and territory is still strong and felt.
The celebrations in honor of Saints Peter and Paul mark the day of June 29th, bringing together the inhabitants and those who return to the village for the occasion. Although it is a small-scale event, the festival is a precious opportunity to discover an authentic and little-known corner of western Liguria, where religious traditions accompany the life of mountain communities.
The 2026 edition of the patron saint's festival falls, as every year, on June 29th, the day of Saints Peter and Paul. The celebrations in honor of the patron saints mark the day, bringing together the community of Cosio d'Arroscia. The detailed program is usually distributed by the parish and the Municipality in the preceding days.
The detailed program for the 2026 edition will be announced by the parish and the Municipality. The festival, which is a fixed annual event, includes:
