About Festival of Saint Thomas

The Sagra di San Tommaso is the patronal feast of the community of San Tommaso, in Albignasego (PD): ten days of celebrations combining faith, gastronomy, and fun. Food stands every evening, mid-week themed evenings, giant inflatables, mechanical bull, and a charity raffle for children. The most solemn moment is on July 3rd, the patron saint's day, with a solemn Mass presided over by the Bishop of Padua and a procession through the streets of the neighborhood accompanied by a brass band.

The patron saint's festival of Albignasego

The Festival of Saint Thomas the Apostle is one of the most cherished events of the summer in Albignasego, in the province of Padua. Organized by the parish of San Tommaso, it combines the religious dimension of the patronal feast with popular and convivial gatherings for ten days, centered around the parish center on Via San Tommaso.

Gastronomy and fun for everyone

The food stand is open every evening and offers themed nights: from the Piadinissimi night to the Hamburger night, from Arrosticini to fried fish. For the little ones, there is the area with giant inflatables, a mechanical bull, building competitions, face painting, and, among the novelties of recent editions, also a mechanical surf and a cocktail corner in the tavern. Don't miss the charity raffle and the watermelon stand.

July 3rd, the heart of the festival

The most solemn moment is on July 3rd, Saint Thomas's day: at 6 PM, the solemn Mass presided over by the Bishop of Padua, followed by the procession through the streets of the neighborhood accompanied by the brass band. As every year, the festival also supports a solidarity project, confirming the community spirit that has animated it for generations.

Festival of Saint Thomas โ€” edition 2026

The 2026 edition of the Festival of Saint Thomas takes place from June 27th to July 6th: ten days of celebration with a food stand, themed evenings, inflatables, and a charity raffle.
