The village festival of Pagnacco at Parco Papa Giovanni Paolo II
Pagnacco, a municipality on the outskirts of Udine overlooking the first hills of Friuli, rediscovers its great village festival every year: Pagnà in Fieste, which returned to liven up the town after years of absence and was immediately embraced by the community. The heart of the event is Parco Papa Giovanni Paolo II, which for two weekends between September and October transforms into a large festival space.
The program is designed for all ages. The evenings come alive with concerts by tribute bands — from Thunders dedicated to AC/DC to RossiMania, a tribute to Vasco Rossi — alongside evenings for younger people with DJ sets and themed parties. For children, there are many activities, with workshops, face painting, and dedicated parties, as well as dance performances and theatrical shows.
At the tables, the well-stocked food and wine stalls offer local specialties, while the youth area offers cocktails and moments of socializing. All organized by the Pro Loco of Pagnacco, with the support of the Municipality.
Pagnà in Fieste is the portrait of a community coming together: music, taste, and fun in a welcoming park, just a few minutes from Udine. An ideal event for families and for those who want to experience the genuine atmosphere of Friulian village festivals.
For 2026, the village festival of Pagnacco returns to liven up Parco Papa Giovanni Paolo II, in its traditional slot between late September and early October, over two weekends. The exact dates and full program will be announced by the Pro Loco of Pagnacco in the weeks preceding the event.
