The ancient festival and the Fiera del Rosario in the homeland of Friularo
The Sagra del Rosario is one of the most deeply rooted festivals in Bagnoli di Sopra, a municipality in the Bassa Padovana region, province of Padova, famous for its Friularo DOCG. The event takes place annually between late September and early October and is particularly remembered for the ancient Fiera del Rosario, held on the first Monday of October.
Once a livestock fair, today the Fiera del Rosario offers a large market of various goods, agricultural tools, and garden plants, keeping a centuries-old tradition alive. The town's streets fill with stalls and visitors, on a day that marks one of the highlights of autumn in the Padua region.
The convivial heart of the festival is the Pro Loco of Bagnoli di Sopra's food stand, offering local traditional dishesโfrom tripe to codโpaired with Friularo di Bagnoli DOCG, the town's signature wine. The Sagra del Rosario, organized by the Pro Loco in collaboration with local associations, is an authentic opportunity to discover the flavors and traditions of the Bassa Padovana.
The 2026 edition of the Sagra del Rosario renews the autumn festival of the Bassa Padovana in Bagnoli di Sopra, with the ancient Fiera del Rosario scheduled for the first Monday of October, October 5, 2026. The Pro Loco's food stand offers tripe, cod, and other traditional dishes, accompanied by Friularo di Bagnoli DOCG, while the fair brings the usual market of various goods, agricultural tools, and garden plants to the town.
