The patronal festival of San Cristoforo in Bertesina
The Sagra della Stratagliata is the patronal festival of San Cristoforo that every late summer transforms Bertesina, a hamlet of Vicenza, into a large meeting point. Along Via San Cristoforo, the community prepares for days of celebration that intertwine religious tradition, good food, and socialising.
The specialty that gives the sagra its identity and name is the «Stratagliata», which is grilled meat served every evening at the food stand, open from 7:00 PM. It is the symbolic dish that draws many food lovers to Bertesina every year.
In addition to good food, the festival offers music, entertainment, and activities for all ages, with dedicated areas for young people and an inflatable area for children. With its parish roots and long duration — up to ten days of celebration — the Sagra della Stratagliata is one of the most cherished events of late summer in Vicenza, in the Veneto region.
The Sagra della Stratagliata, patronal festival of San Cristoforo in Bertesina (Vicenza), is a regular late summer event: in 2026 it will again liven up the hamlet with its days of celebration. Currently, the official dates for 2026 have not yet been published; traditionally, the sagra is held at the end of August, with evenings spread over two weekends along Via San Cristoforo.
The detailed program for the 2026 edition will be announced by the parish closer to the event. The established structure of the sagra includes:
