About San Lorenzo a Borgo Cerreto
The patron saint's festival of Borgo Cerreto
In Borgo Cerreto, a hamlet of Cerreto di Spoleto in the province of Perugia, August 10th is the day of San Lorenzo, the patron saint linked to the village's church of the same name. For the occasion, the community gathers for the Festeggiamenti di San Lorenzo, which intertwine the religious celebration with the village festival, on the evocative night of the shooting stars.
Between religious tradition and popular festival
The day alternates liturgical moments with conviviality: food stalls with traditional Valnerina dishes, shows, and entertainment liven up the village. The sporting event is not missing, with the San Lorenzo football tournament which has attracted teams and fans for years, strengthening the bond between the communities of the area.

They are an opportunity to experience the authenticity of a village festival, far from the major tourist flows.
