The patronal festival of San Lorenzo and the Festival of Associations in the heart of Misano
Misà 'n Fèsta is the patronal festival (sagra) of Misano di Gera d'Adda, a municipality in the province of Bergamo in the Gera d'Adda plain. The festival is dedicated to Saint Lawrence, the town's patron saint, and is intertwined with the Festival of Associations, creating an event that combines popular devotion and community life.
The religious heart of the festival is the solemn mass and the procession in honour of Saint Lawrence, accompanied by the lighting of a bonfire in the churchyard, a symbolic gesture linked to the saint. These moments bring the community together around its roots and patronal tradition, in the height of summer.
Alongside the religious dimension, Misà 'n Fèsta is above all a village festival: every evening, music and dancing for all tastes alternate, from ballroom music to Latin rhythms. There is also entertainment for children, a mini funfair, sweets, and stalls selling crafts and handmade goods, while local eateries offer dinners and aperitifs at outdoor tables.
Misà 'n Fèsta is an identity-defining event for Misano di Gera d'Adda, in which local associations play a leading role. More than just a simple festival (sagra), it is a moment when the town comes together: a celebration that honours the patron saint Saint Lawrence and, at the same time, the network of volunteers and social life that animates the community of the Gera d'Adda region.
The 2026 edition of Misà 'n Fèsta will animate the historic centre of Misano di Gera d'Adda from August 10 to 13. The festival combines the patronal festival of San Lorenzo with the Festival of Associations, in a program that alternates moments of devotion and evenings of entertainment.
On August 10, the patron saint's day, a solemn mass and procession in honour of San Lorenzo will be held, with the lighting of the bonfire in the churchyard. In the evenings, there will be music and dancing, entertainment for children, a mini funfair, sweets, and stalls selling crafts and handmade goods.
