About Sagra del Ringraziamento
The end-of-harvest festival in ancient Laus
The Sagra del Ringraziamento is one of the most cherished events in Lodi Vecchio, in the province of Lodi. Heir to an ancient peasant tradition, it celebrates the moment when farmers gave thanks for the fruits that nature had bestowed after hard work in the fields. The event takes place in Piazza Vittorio Emanuele II and the surrounding streets, animating the entire town center.
Peasant tradition and community
The heart of the day is the farmers' market with local products, accompanied by demonstrations of ancient crafts, a blessing and mass, the brass band in procession, and workshops for children. There are also parades of cattle dogs, majorettes, and marching groups.
An event for all ages
Alongside the traditional part, the festival offers a medieval area with falconers, archers, and merchants, a funfair, exhibitions on biodiversity and plants, a photographic exhibition, and the traditional charity raffle at the oratory. Organized by the Municipality of Lodi Vecchio, it is a village festival that attracts visitors from all over the Lodigiano region.
