The krapfen of Lovara and the feast of Saint Peter in the Vicenza Hills
In Lovara di Trissino, a hilly hamlet of the municipality of Trissino in the province of Vicenza, the Sagra di Lovara is held concurrently with the feast of Saint Peter the Apostle, on the last two weekends of June. It is one of the most deeply rooted festivals in the Colli Vicentini, reaching its 48th edition in 2026.
The true symbol of the sagra are the krapfen, prepared according to tradition, fluffy and delicious, served on Saturdays and Sundays from 5:30 PM. Over the years, they have become the gastronomic attraction that identifies Lovara and draws visitors from all over the Val d'Agno.
The food stand is open from 6:30 PM to 10:30 PM with traditional Vicenza dishes. Alongside the food, the program offers concerts, performances, exhibitions, and shows, as well as a painting competition designed to showcase the landscape characteristics of the hilly area.
Nestled in a charming hilly landscape, the Sagra di Lovara is an event of strong identity for Trissino: it combines the religious dimension of the feast of Saint Peter with popular conviviality, flavors, and art, on some evenings at the end of June that mark the beginning of the Trissino summer.
