The Patron Saint's festival in the mountain hamlet of Savignone
The Festa Patronale di Sorrivi is the most important event for the hamlet of Sorrivi, in the municipality of Savignone (Province of Genoa), in the heart of Vallescrivia. A village festival that every year brings together the inhabitants of the hamlet around their Patron Saint, between faith and tradition.
The celebrations combine the religious dimension, with ceremonies in honour of the Patron Saint, with the popular and convivial aspect, made up of moments of gathering that renew the sense of community. It is one of those minor but authentic festivals that dot the Ligurian hinterland, guardians of a tradition that endures over time.
The Festa Patronale di Sorrivi is included among the Authentic Ligurian Events recognised and funded by the Region for 2026, testifying to the value of these traditional celebrations for the life of the small villages in Vallescrivia. An opportunity to discover a little-known but genuine corner of the Genoese hinterland.
The 2026 edition of the Festa Patronale di Sorrivi takes place on 5 September in the hamlet of Sorrivi, in Savignone. The festival combines religious celebrations in honour of the Patron Saint with moments of meeting and conviviality that characterise village festivals in the Genoese hinterland. Recognised among the Authentic Ligurian Events, it is a cherished event for the Vallescrivia community. The detailed programme is distributed by the organisers.
