About Sagra di Novale
The festival of the Novale hamlet
The Sagra di Novale is one of the most cherished village festivals in the Valdagno area, in the province of Vicenza. It takes place in the hamlet of Novale, at the Oratorio Don Bosco on Via Chiesa di Novale, and is organized by the Pastoral Unit of Santa Maria di Panisacco together with the oratory community.
Gnocchi with fioretta
The specialty that identifies the festival is gnocchi with fioretta, served with the typical fresh local ricotta, accompanied by grilled meat from the food stand. The dish is a piece of Vicenza's gastronomic tradition that is worth a visit on its own.
Music, games, and sports
Alongside the food, the festival offers a rich program spread over several days: music and dancing evenings, baby dance and games for children, charity fishing, as well as walks and cycling events that involve the village. It's a festival designed for all ages, from Sunday lunch to evenings under the marquee.
