The feast of the patron saint of Borgo San Siro, in the Pavese tradition of December 9th
The Patronal Feast of Saint Syrus is the feast of the patron saint of Borgo San Siro, a municipality in the Province of Pavia in Lomellina. The patron saint, Saint Syrus of Pavia, is celebrated on December 9th, the day of his liturgical feast.
Saint Syrus, according to tradition the first bishop of Pavia, is one of the most venerated figures in the Pavese diocese: his remains are preserved in the Cathedral of Pavia, and his memory is celebrated throughout the city and the surrounding territory. The connection with Borgo San Siro is such that it gives its name to the town, testifying to a devotion rooted over centuries.
The patronal feast combines liturgical celebrations in the parish church with the gathering of a community that comes together around its saint. The diocese of Pavia accompanies the solemnity of Saint Syrus each year with a rich program of celebrations in the Cathedral, while in the towns of the territory, like Borgo San Siro, the feast is celebrated on the saint's day, in a winter atmosphere preceding Christmas.

The festival includes liturgical celebrations in the parish church, a moment when the community gathers around its patron saint. In 2026, December 9th falls on a Wednesday; the local celebration typically takes place on the saint's day. The detailed program will be announced by the parish.
