About Fiera dei Santi
The ancient fair of Monselice
The Fiera dei Santi is the historic fair of Monselice, in the province of Padua, a tradition documented since 1275. It takes place at the beginning of November, around the feast of All Saints' Day, and transforms the city center into a large marketplace and festival.
Stalls, agricultural fair, and funfair
Piazza Mazzini hosts over 200 stalls with goods, typical products, and gastronomy, while the agricultural fair, with agricultural machinery and local products, is held at the Cava della Rocca. For children and families, there is the funfair, in an atmosphere of popular celebration.
Traditions, saffron, and mushrooms
Among the collateral events, the procession for the blessing of the city, the saffron festival of the Euganean Hills, the mycological exhibition with hundreds of species of mushrooms, and extraordinary openings of monuments and exhibitions stand out. A centuries-old fair that combines market, agriculture, faith, and culture in the heart of Monselice.
