Festival of Fara Olivana
Ten days of patronal feast in honor of Saint Stephen, in the Bassa bergamasca
About Festival of Fara Olivana
The patronal feast of Fara Olivana
The Festival of Fara Olivana is the patronal feast of Fara Olivana con Sola, a small municipality in the Bassa bergamasca, in the province of Bergamo. The event takes place every year between the end of July and the beginning of August, for about ten days, and is dedicated to the patron saint Saint Stephen.
Cuisine, music, and community
The festival combines the religious dimension — with mass and procession in honor of the patron saint — with the more convivial aspect of the village feast. The evenings are enlivened by typical cuisine, music, tombola, and entertainment that involve the entire community and visitors from neighboring towns. It is an event that has marked the summer of this corner of the Bergamo plain for years.
Tradition of a small village
In a small municipality like Fara Olivana con Sola, the patronal feast represents the most important moment of the year, the occasion when the village comes together around its roots and devotion to Saint Stephen. Between the sacred and the profane, the festival tells the identity of a community in the Bassa bergamasca tied to farming traditions and village life, in the province of Bergamo.
