Religious and village festival with procession, pumpkin risotto, and funfair
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.
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.
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.
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.
The Sagra della Madonna del Rosario 2026 returns to Linarolo in October, between Piazza Dante and Via Matteotti. As usual, the festival will feature religious moments—Holy Rosary, Holy Mass, and procession—alongside popular events: markets and stands from sports clubs, pumpkin risotto, children's market, shows at Cascina Vallidone, apericena at the ARCI club, charity raffle in the oratory, and funfair in Via San Leonardo. Precise dates and the full program will be released closer to the event.
The detailed program for the 2026 edition, including dates and times, will be announced by the parish and associations of Linarolo in the weeks prior.
Linarolo is located in the province of Pavia, along the plain southeast of the provincial capital, between Pavia and Belgioioso. It is reachable by car from the provincial road to Belgioioso.
The festival takes place in October, from Saturday to Monday, between Piazza Dante, Via Matteotti, the oratory, and Cascina Vallidone. Free admission; some gastronomic events require booking.
