The patronal feast of Istrana, in the heart of Marca Trevigiana
June 24th is the day of Saint John the Baptist, patron saint of Istrana, a municipality in the province of Treviso in the heart of Marca Trevigiana. Around this date, the community gathers for the village festival, a patronal feast that intertwines the religious and popular dimensions, following a tradition widespread throughout Veneto.
For a few days, the center of Istrana hosts the food and wine stand with traditional Venetian dishes, the funfair with its rides, the classic charity raffle, and a schedule of evenings dedicated to live music and shows. There are also moments of entertainment for children, making the festival an event suitable for the whole family.
Organized by the local associations and parish groups, the Festival of Saint John the Baptist is the summer event where Istrana comes together around its patron saint. With free admission to all evenings, it's a genuine opportunity to discover the Venetian village festival in its most authentic form, far from the most famous tourist destinations.

Free admission to all evenings.
