Patronal Feast of Saint Agatha

The patron saint of Ornago

Saint Agatha is the patron saint of Ornago, a municipality in eastern Brianza, in the province of Monza and Brianza. Her feast day, traditionally set by the Catholic Church on February 5th, is the occasion for the town's patronal feast, one of the most deeply rooted events in the local calendar.

A community celebration

The Patronal Feast of Saint Agatha is organized by the Culture and Sport Office of the Municipality of Ornago and combines religious celebration with moments of social gathering and festivity. On a day that falls in the heart of the Brianza winter, the community comes together around the figure of the patron saint, in an atmosphere that blends tradition, devotion, and conviviality.

The role of the Pro Loco

The associative life of Ornago is also animated by the Pro Loco Ornago, active in promoting the territory and part of the UNPLI network of Monza and Brianza. In addition to the patronal feast, the association promotes other events throughout the year, contributing to making Ornago a vibrant town from a cultural and social perspective.

An event that opens the year

Falling in early February, the Feast of Saint Agatha ideally marks the start of Ornago's annual event calendar. It is an event of identity for the town, which each year renews its bond with its patron saint and its traditions, in a municipality in the province of Monza and Brianza that has managed to keep the community dimension of the feast alive.
