About Sagra della Stratagliata

The Sagra della Stratagliata is the patronal festival of San Cristoforo that enlivens Bertesina, a hamlet of Vicenza, every late summer. A long village festival — up to ten days — featuring the specialty that gives it its name, the «Stratagliata» (grilled meat), accompanied by music, entertainment, and activities for all ages. A traditional sagra (village festival), with parish roots, deeply felt by the local community.

The patronal festival of 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 Stratagliata

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.

Music, entertainment, and family

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.
