About Sagra del Rosario

In Linarolo, a municipality in the plain southeast of Pavia, the Sagra della Madonna del Rosario combines popular devotion with village celebration every October. Between Piazza Dante and Via Matteotti, the Holy Rosary, Holy Mass with procession, markets from local sports clubs, pumpkin risotto, charity raffle in the oratory, funfair, and apericena at the ARCI club take place. A weekend that intertwines faith, gastronomy, and community in the heart of the Pavese region.

A festival of faith and community

The Sagra della Madonna del Rosario is the autumn event in Linarolo, a municipality in the province of Pavia located in the plain southeast of the provincial capital. The festival, linked to the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary, intertwines the religious dimension with the popular one and takes place every October between Piazza Dante and Via Matteotti.

Religious moments

Devotion remains the common thread: the Holy Rosary, the Holy Mass, and the procession with the community gathered mark the days, culminating in the mass for deceased faithful. The village festival unfolds around these moments.

Flavors, markets, and entertainment

The festival features markets and stands from local sports clubs, a photographic exhibition in the Council Hall, pumpkin risotto served at midday, a children's market, shows, and creative workshops at Cascina Vallidone, and an apericena at the ARCI club. For the little ones, a charity raffle in the oratory and a funfair in Via San Leonardo are set up.

Three days of celebration

The event spans several days, from Saturday to Monday, involving the parish, the oratory, and the village associations. It is a moment of identity for Linarolo and the Pavese plain, where the patron saint's festival remains one of the most cherished occasions of the autumn.
