The village festival of the hamlet of Capriano, in Brianza
The Festa Patronale di Capriano is one of those events that tell the most authentic soul of Brianza. It takes place in the hamlet of Capriano, in Briosco, a municipality in the Province of Monza and Brianza, in Lombardy, and represents the patronal festival of the small local community.
The heart of the festival is the oratory, where community dinners are organized, generally from 7:00 PM, with reservations at the local shops. These are moments of gathering that bring together the inhabitants of the hamlet and the surrounding areas, in a simple and familiar atmosphere typical of Brianza village festivals.
What distinguishes the Festa di Capriano is its solidarity purpose: the proceeds from the dinners are used to support the work in the churches of the Briosco pastoral community. Participating in the festival therefore means not only enjoying an evening of conviviality but also contributing concretely to the care of the religious heritage of the territory.
Traditionally held in mid-July, the Festa Patronale di Capriano is an eagerly awaited event by the community, which renews its bond with its village identity every year. Between faith, solidarity, and convivial moments, it is an example of how the small hamlets of Brianza manage to keep their traditions alive.
The 2026 Festa Patronale di Capriano is scheduled for July, following the tradition of placing it on a weekend in mid-month. The festival, organized by the pastoral community of Briosco, includes dinners in the oratory from 7:00 PM (with reservations at local shops) and moments of conviviality. The proceeds are allocated to the work in the community's churches. Precise dates will be announced closer to the event.
