About Montagnanese in Fiera

At the beginning of October, Montagnana hosts the Montagnanese in Fiera, a historic agricultural and livestock show in southern Veneto. In the historic center of the walled city, between Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II and Via Circonvallazione Nord, there are exhibitions of farm animals and livestock, agricultural machinery and equipment, tastings of typical products, a craft market, itinerant shows, and popular traditions. A festival celebrating the rural vocation of the Paduan Scodosia.

The fair that tells the story of the Paduan countryside

The Montagnanese in Fiera is the traditional agricultural and livestock show that enlivens the historic center of Montagnana, in the province of Padova, every early October. In the shadow of the famous 14th-century walls, the fair showcases the rural richness of the area: farm animals and livestock, agricultural machinery and equipment, typical products, and popular traditions of the Scodosia.

Between exhibitions, taste, and craftsmanship

The program alternates between exhibitions of animals and machinery, food stalls with the flavors of Venetian cuisine, a craft market, and itinerant shows that traverse the village. Among the highlights of the entertainment, the folk group Bontemponi offers an itinerant show along the historic center, contributing to the festive atmosphere of a day dedicated to the land and those who work it.

A walled city celebrating

The setting for the event is the unique one of Montagnana, one of the best-preserved walled cities in Europe, in southern Veneto a few kilometers from the Euganean Hills. The fair is an opportunity to discover the village, its squares, and its agricultural identity, in an event that attracts visitors from all over the province each year.
