Fiera di San Martino a Villanova Marchesana
The historic autumn fair of typical products of the Polesine
About Fiera di San Martino
The fair of the autumn of Polesine
The Fiera di San Martino is one of the most deeply rooted events in Villanova Marchesana, a small municipality in the province of Rovigo overlooking the Po River. The Municipal tourist portal describes it as one of the most famous fairs in the area, a traditional festival celebrating the typical products of the Polesine, held in the autumn period linked to the figure of St. Martin, around November 11th.
The flavours of the territory
The heart of the fair is the local typical products: the Fiera di San Martino, in the Venetian and Po Valley tradition, coincides with the time of new wine and autumn flavours. In Villanova Marchesana, the event fills the streets and squares of the town with stalls, exhibitors, and local products.
A community tradition
Organised with the involvement of the Municipality and the Pro Loco 'Amici del Po', the fair is one of the events that animate the calendar of this corner of the lower Polesine, attracting visitors from neighbouring towns and renewing the community's bond with its rural traditions.
