Sagra del Redentore di Ponte di Barbarano

A village festival in the heart of the Berici Hills

The Sagra del Redentore is the quintessential summer event of Ponte di Barbarano, a hamlet in the municipality of Barbarano Mossano, in the province of Vicenza. Organized by Pro Loco Ponte, it takes place every year in July, traditionally around the third Sunday of the month, transforming the village into a major meeting point for the Berici community.

Food, music, and fun

The heart of the festival is the extensive food stand, offering traditional Venetian dishes: gnocchi and bigoli pasta, grilled meats, fried fish, tagliata (sliced steak), musso (donkey meat), and the classic Venetian-style liver. Alongside the dining options, there are evenings of live music, ballroom dancing, a youth area with DJ sets, a charity raffle, and a funfair for children.

The Redentore spectacle

The most anticipated moment is the pyromusical show, which over the years has also included videomapping, illuminating the sky above the Bacchiglione river to close the festival. It symbolizes a popular tradition that combines devotion to the Redeemer, conviviality, and volunteer spirit.

An event for the entire Berici Hills region

Thanks to the commitment of Pro Loco volunteers, the Sagra del Redentore has grown to become a landmark event for the entire Berici Hills area, attracting families, young people, and curious visitors every summer in search of good food, music, and a village atmosphere.
