Feste di San Rocco a Ghedi
The mid-August festival around the Sanctuary
About Feste di San Rocco
San Rocco, mid-August festival in Ghedi
The Feste di San Rocco are a traditional event in Ghedi (Province of Brescia), linked to the figure of San Rocco, a protector invoked against epidemics. The festival takes place in mid-August around the Sanctuary of San Rocco, along the Viale della Rimembranza, and combines the religious dimension with the convivial aspect of a large village festival.
Flavours, entertainment, and tradition
Organised by the Pro Loco of Ghedi, the event offers a rich and varied programme:
- Food stalls with Brescian specialities: casoncelli, tagliata, pane e salamina;
- Exhibitors and stalls;
- Bouncy castles and entertainment for children;
- Guided tours of the Sanctuary of San Rocco;
- Mixed-breed dog race and other initiatives.
A festival in the heart of summer
The Feste di San Rocco represent one of the most anticipated moments of the summer for Ghedi, when the community gathers around the Sanctuary for days of celebration, faith, gastronomy, and fun. The presence of typical dishes such as pane e salamina and casoncelli makes the event an opportunity to rediscover the flavours of the tradition of the Brescian plain.
