Edition 2025 — Fiera di San Bartolomeo a Caorsa

In 2025 too, the hamlet of Caorsa di Affi renewed on August 24th the ancient Fiera di San Bartolomeo, the historic Pig Fair. In the churchyard of the Romanesque church of the saint, the community celebrated a centuries-old tradition of the Garda hinterland, in the province of Verona.

The Fiera di San Bartolomeo in Caorsa was also celebrated in 2025 on August 24th, confirming a tradition that dates back to the 12th-13th centuries. In the churchyard of the Romanesque church of San Bartolomeo, in the hamlet of Caorsa di Affi (province of Verona), the event attracted visitors from all over the Garda region. Although no longer a market for trading pigs as originally, the ancient fair has maintained its folkloristic and identity value, testifying to the deep connection between the patron saint of butchers and the rural history of the Garda hinterland.
