About Festival of Saint John the Baptist
The Patron Saint's Feast
The Festival of Saint John the Baptist is the patronal feast of San Giovanni Lupatoto, a municipality in the Veronese area that owes its name to the saint. The occasion, linked to the feast day of Saint John the Baptist on June 24th, transforms Piazza Umberto I into the vibrant heart of the community for a few days of celebration.
Food and Activities for Everyone
The program combines food stalls with traditional dishes, themed evenings at the Marzadro stand, and a series of initiatives designed for families and children, such as the Mercatiamo market and the Giochiamo insieme toy exchange. The square thus becomes a meeting point that blends conviviality, tradition, and fun.
A Community Celebration
Organized by the Festival Committee, the event is one of the most cherished community gatherings in San Giovanni Lupatoto, in the province of Verona, and confirms the town's connection with its patron saint.
