About Sagra del Pomodoro

In July, Borgoricco, in the Graticolato Romano area of the province of Padua, celebrates one of its longest-standing traditions with the Sagra del Pomodoro: five days of food stands in Viale Europa, where the tomato is the star in many recipes. Among the evening events, there's also the highly anticipated election of Miss Graticolato Romano, a beauty contest that has accompanied the festival for almost thirty years.

A festival that has lasted for decades

The Sagra del Pomodoro in Borgoricco, a town in the plain north of Padua in the Graticolato Romano area, is one of the most established festivals in the local summer calendar. Dedicated to one of the symbolic products of Venetian agriculture, it has for decades showcased the community's connection to its land and farming traditions.

Five days of celebration

The event takes place over five days in July at the food stand in Viale Europa. The tomato is the star of the cuisine, featured in numerous recipes that highlight local produce. Musical evenings, dancing, and entertainment accompany the festival, attracting visitors from all over the Camposampiero area.

Miss Graticolato Romano

One of the most anticipated moments is the election of Miss Graticolato Romano, a beauty contest now in its twenty-seventh edition, held at the Theatre of the Aldo Rossi Cultural Centre. Organized by Pro Loco Borgoricco with the Associazione Festeggiamenti San Leonardo, the Sagra del Pomodoro is an event that combines gastronomy, entertainment, and local identity.
