About Sagra del Capitello di Sant'Antonio
A festival that preserves tradition
The Sagra del Capitello di Sant'Antonio is held in Busiago, a hamlet of Vigodarzere (province of Padua), in honour of Saint Anthony of Padua. It is a historic and deeply felt event, which—as also highlighted by local institutions—keeps alive the tradition and community spirit of the town.
Grill, dancing, and fun
The heart of the festival is the food stand with grilled meat and fresh pasta, alongside the dance floor, music, and funfair. The evenings, typically spread over two weekends in June, liven up Busiago di Vigodarzere and attract visitors from neighbouring hamlets and municipalities in the Padovano area (Veneto).
The link with Saint Anthony
The sagra is dedicated to Saint Anthony of Padua, whose feast day is June 13th, a figure deeply connected to the Padovano territory. The festival thus combines popular devotion with the conviviality of a long-standing village festival.
