About Camisano Festival

In Camisano, a small municipality in the Cremona plain, the patronal feast in honour of Saint John the Baptist is the most anticipated event of the year. Celebrated on the first Sunday of September, the festival combines religious celebrations with popular festivities, in the village dominated by the castle of the Dal Verme counts and the parish church dedicated to the patron saint. An opportunity to discover an authentic corner of the province of Cremona, where patronal tradition remains at the heart of community identity.

The patron saint of Camisano

Camisano is a small municipality of about 1,250 inhabitants in the Cremona plain, in the province of Cremona. The town celebrates its patron saint, Saint John the Baptist, with the patronal festival that falls on the first Sunday of September: in 2026, it will be on September 6th.

Faith and popular festival

The festival combines the religious dimension — with celebrations in honour of Saint John the Baptist in the parish church dedicated to him — with the popular and convivial dimension, following the tradition of patronal feasts in the Po Valley plain. It is the time when the community of Camisano comes together, with moments of faith and celebration.

The Dal Verme castle

Camisano is characterised by the castle of the Dal Verme counts, a testament to the territory's feudal past, and the parish church of Saint John the Baptist.
