About Fiera di Santa Felicita

In the heart of Pomponesco, one of the most beautiful villages in Italy in the Bassa Mantovana region, the Fiera di Santa Felicita is the patronal festival that enlivens the picturesque Piazza XXIII Aprile in July. A centuries-old tradition with a funfair, food stalls, typical products, a charity raffle, crafts, and live music every evening. An authentic village festival, where the history of the village intertwines with summer conviviality.

Pomponesco's Patronal Fair

Pomponesco, a small gem in the Bassa Mantovana region, listed among the Most Beautiful Villages in Italy, celebrates its patron saint Saint Felicita (July 10th) every July with a fair of ancient origins. The event takes place in the charming Piazza XXIII Aprile, with its characteristic Renaissance layout.

A Centuries-Old Tradition

The Fiera di Santa Felicita is an event rooted in centuries past, an integral part of the village's identity and the cultural calendar of the Mantua region. For several days, the square and the historic centre come alive with activities for all ages.

Funfair, Food, and Music

The programme includes the traditional funfair in the square, food stalls, tastings of typical local products, a charity raffle, and exhibitions of crafts and hobbies. Every evening, starting at 9:30 PM, live music accompanies the festivities. A tried-and-tested mix that makes the fair a gathering point for the residents of Pomponesco and visitors from the province of Mantua.
