About Sagra dei Frati

Also known as 'Sagra dei Frati', the Sagra del Perdon d'Assisi takes place between late July and early August in the hamlet of San Giacomo di Monselice, in the evocative setting of the Cloister of San Giacomo.

The Sagra dei Frati of San Giacomo

The Sagra del Perdon d'Assisi, popularly known as 'Sagra dei Frati', is the festival that animates the hamlet of San Giacomo di Monselice, on the Euganean Hills in the province of Padua, between July and August. It takes place in the scenic setting of the Cloister of San Giacomo, in Via San Giacomo 17.

Gastronomy and solidarity

The heart of the festival is the food stall, open in the evening from 7:30 PM, with fish specialties (paella is one of the most anticipated events, upon reservation). There is also a charity raffle, bouncy castles for the little ones, and various musical evenings. Part of the proceeds are donated to the Valnogaredo Family Home, which assists families and children in need.

The Pardon of Assisi

The festival retains its religious dimension with the solemn Mass of the Pardon of Assisi, celebrated on August 2nd, and moments of prayer linked to the Franciscan indulgence. An event that intertwines faith, conviviality, and social commitment within the fabric of Euganean festivals.
