Patronal Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi (SanFra in Festa)

The 2025 Patronal Feast

The 2025 edition of the Patronal Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi confirmed the strong bond between San Francesco al Campo and its patron saint. For several days, around the October 4th anniversary, the Canavese town came alive with initiatives organized by the Municipality and the Pro Loco.

Highlights included the Palio dei Borghi, with districts competing in tug-of-war, equestrian races, hay bale racing, and the 'pasta-eating' challenge, as well as the traditional showdown of the Reines of the Valli di Lanzo. The program was completed by dance evenings, music, themed culinary offerings, and the funfair, while the spiritual dimension culminated in the Sunday procession and solemn mass.
