The patron saint's feast of Cabiate around September 8th
The Patronal Feast of the Nativity of the Virgin Mary is the feast of the patron saint of Cabiate, a municipality in the province of Como, in the heart of Brianza. The patron saint, the Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary, is celebrated on September 8th, the date around which both the religious celebrations in the parish and the town's grand civic feast revolve.
Alongside the devotional dimension is Cabiate in Festa, the community event that enlivens the town center and city parks. The program is rich and varied: games and inflatables for children, markets and craft stalls, catering provided by the Gruppo Alpini, dancing evenings, and entertainment for all ages.
Among the most characteristic events are the vintage car parades, sports and martial arts demonstrations, civic merit awards, and the traditional 'Cursa cun la Cadrega', the race with the chair that has become a symbol of the Cabiate festival and harks back to the town's roots, historically linked to furniture and chair production.
Free and spread across the squares, parks, and parish, the Patronal Feast of Cabiate is the most important event of the year for the town: an occasion that combines faith, tradition, sport, and conviviality, capable of involving families, young people, and the elderly and reinforcing the identity of the Como Brianza community.
