Rustega Livestock Fair
Ten days of livestock, horses, agriculture, and tradition in Rustega di Camposampiero
About Rustega Fair
Almost Half a Century of Livestock Tradition
Since 1976, the Rustega Livestock Fair has been the major event celebrating the primary sector in the heart of the Padua region. It takes place in the hamlet of Rustega, in Camposampiero (Padua province), at Via Borgo Rustega 88, and for ten days transforms the fairgrounds into a showcase of Venetian agriculture and breeding.
Animals, Machinery, and Entertainment
The heart of the fair is the exhibition of various animal species — cattle, horses, poultry — alongside innovative agricultural machinery. But the Rustega Fair is also about entertainment and tradition: the Grand Equestrian Gala, horse races, the Haflinger competition, and the Vini in Fiera wine review enrich the program, while the food stand accompanies the evenings with local cuisine and DJ sets.
A Celebration for the Territory
More than just a trade exhibition, the fair is a popular festival that attracts visitors from all over the Camposampiero area and the province of Padua, blending farming culture with the fun and conviviality typical of large Veneto festivals.

The 2026 edition of the Rustega Livestock Fair, the 48th since its founding in 1976, takes place in Camposampiero from April 24 to May 3.
