The feast of the patron saint amidst faith, tradition, sport, and music
The Patronal Feast of Saint George is the most important religious and popular event of the year for Bernate Ticino, a Municipality in the Province of Milan nestled within the Ticino Park, along the Naviglio Grande canal. The parish church is dedicated to Saint George himself, whose liturgical feast day falls on April 23rd.
The heart of the feast is the religious observance: a solemn Mass, presided over by an ecclesiastical authority, and the Eucharistic procession that winds through the town's streets, carrying the relic and icon of Saint George. The occasion traditionally concludes with a Mass in suffrage for the deceased, a journey of faith that involves the entire parish community.
Alongside the religious celebrations, the patronal feast offers a program of events that combines tradition, sports activities, and musical moments, designed to engage all ages. It's an occasion for the town of Bernate Ticino to come together, renewing its bond with its patron saint and the community's roots, all within the natural setting of the Ticino Park.
In 2026, Bernate Ticino will once again celebrate Saint George on April 23rd. The religious program includes a solemn Mass and the Eucharistic procession with the patron saint's relic and icon through the town's streets, while events focusing on tradition, sport, and music will take place around these celebrations. The detailed program will be released by the parish and the Municipality in the weeks prior.
The detailed program with times and appointments will be communicated by the parish and the Municipality of Bernate Ticino closer to the feast.
