About Festival Madonna della Salute - Poncia

The Festival of Our Lady of Health of Poncia is the village festival that enlivens the hamlet of Poncia, in Curtarolo, in the province of Padua, every August. Around the small oratory church, the festival combines religious functions — rosaries, masses, and the solemn Saturday procession — with the food stand, dance evenings, children's games, and a lottery. A community celebration organized by the parish committee and the Pro Loco.

The Poncia festival

The Festival of Our Lady of Health is the summer festival of the hamlet of Poncia, in Curtarolo, in the province of Padua, linked to the parish of Santa Maria di Non. It takes place in August around the small oratory church, of which the community of Poncia is particularly proud.

Devotion and procession

The religious dimension marks the evenings: the rosary and Holy Mass accompany the first days of the festival, while the most anticipated moment is the solemn Saturday evening procession in honor of the Blessed Virgin of Health.

Food stand and entertainment

After moments of prayer, the evenings continue with the opening of the food stand, dance evenings, games for the little ones, and the drawing of lottery prizes at the end of each day. Organized by the parish committee together with the Pro Loco, the festival is a point of reference for the community of Poncia and Curtarolo.
