Four days of patronal feast in the heart of winter in Veniano
In Veniano, a municipality in the province of Como not far from Appiano Gentile, the feast of Saint Anthony Abbot is the most important patronal recurrence of the year. It is celebrated in mid-January, around the saint's liturgical day (January 17), and for four days it enlivens the life of the town with a program that combines faith, tradition, and community moments.
The event, curated by the Parish of Saint Anthony Abbot within the Pastoral Community of the Blessed Virgin of Mount Carmel, offers liturgical celebrations, music, charity initiatives, and events designed for all ages.
