Pancarana celebrates its patroness, Our Lady of the Rosary
The Patronal Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary is the most cherished event in Pancarana, a small municipality in the Lomellina region, province of Pavia. Every year, on the first weekend of October, the village gathers around its patroness for a celebration that combines religious devotion with community spirit.
The religious heart of the feast lies in the procession on Saturday evening and the solemn service on Sunday, accompanied by a choir. These are the moments when the community of Pancarana renews its devotion to Our Lady of the Rosary, in a tradition passed down through generations that marks the village's calendar.
Alongside the religious rites, the feast offers a rich entertainment program: a five-a-side football tournament, distribution of salami, a market of local products—potatoes, onions, pumpkins, the fruits of the Lomellina land—a dance school, and shows for children. Organized by the Parish of Pancarana with the patronage of the Municipality, the patronal feast is an occasion for meeting and conviviality that brings together the inhabitants of the village and neighboring towns, in the heart of the Pavese countryside.
The 2026 edition of the Patronal Feast of Our Lady of the Rosary takes place on the first weekend of October in Pancarana.
