Sagra di Cazzago
Six days in September with barbecues, music, and community in the hamlet of Cazzago
About Sagra di Cazzago
A Sagra Born for the Community
The Sagra di Cazzago is the festival of the hamlet of Cazzago di Pianiga, a municipality in the Riviera del Brenta in the province of Venice. Born in 1968 as a fundraiser for the parish kindergarten, it is still managed today by the Parish of San Martino and has grown over the years to become one of the most cherished September events in the area.
Gastronomy and Music
The sagra offers six days of gastronomy, music, and sharing. The food stand opens every evening from 7:00 PM, preceded by the aperitif area from 6:30 PM, with traditional dishes prepared with local products — especially grilled meat. The evenings are enlivened by live concerts, while thematic exhibitions, charity fishing, lotteries, and stalls revolve around the festival.
The Spirit of Cazzago
More than a gastronomic event, the Sagra di Cazzago is a moment of identity for the hamlet: an occasion for the community to come together, around themes that the parish proposes each year as food for thought. A festival that attracts people not only from Cazzago but also from nearby towns, keeping alive the spirit of the village festivals of the Riviera del Brenta.
Cazzago and the Riviera del Brenta
A hamlet of Pianiga along the ancient road to Venice, Cazzago is located in the heart of the Riviera del Brenta, famous for its Venetian villas overlooking the Naviglio. The sagra is an opportunity to discover an authentic corner of the Venetian mainland, far from the major tourist flows.
