About Piana Village Festival

The Sagra alla Piana is one of the longest and most beloved village festivals in Valdagno, in the province of Vicenza: almost two weeks of gastronomy, music, and fun in the Piana district. The food stand opens every evening with traditional Venetian dishes, while the schedule alternates between dancing nights, DJ sets, activities for children, the 'Walk through woods and districts' event, and a Vespa Tour. A free shuttle service connects the car park to the festival for its entire duration.

The district festival that lasts two weeks

The Piana Village Festival is a popular event in Valdagno, in the Agno Valley in the province of Vicenza, held in the Piana district. Its unusually long duration — almost two weeks straddling late April and early May — makes it one of the most attended festivals in the area, managed by local committee volunteers.

Food takes centre stage

The food stand opens every evening, offering classic Venetian cuisine and some international specialties: gnocchi, guinea fowl and truffle ravioli, polenta and cod, German-style sausages with potatoes and pretzels, pizza, and other typical dishes. It's the heart around which the entire festival revolves.

Music, sport, and families

The program alternates between dancing nights, DJ sets, and concerts with moments designed for families, including creative workshops and activities for children. Among the most anticipated events are the 'Walk through woods and districts' on May 1st and the Vespa Tour with a blessing of the Vespas.

Services and hospitality

To facilitate public access, a free shuttle service connects the Amer car park to the Piana district every evening, confirming the organizers' focus on hospitality. The Piana Village Festival is now a spring classic in Valdagno.
