The patronal festival of San Giovanni Lupatoto in Piazza Umberto I
The Sagra di San Giovanni Battista is the patronal festival of San Giovanni Lupatoto, a municipality in the Veronese hinterland that owes its name to the saint. The event, linked to the feast day of Saint John the Baptist on June 24th, transforms Piazza Umberto I into the vibrant heart of the community for a few days of celebration.
The program combines food stalls with traditional dishes, themed evenings at the Marzadro stand, and a series of initiatives designed for families and children, such as the Mercatiamo market and the Giochiamo insieme toy exchange. The square thus becomes a meeting point that blends conviviality, tradition, and fun.
Organized by the Festival Committee, the event is one of the most cherished community gatherings in San Giovanni Lupatoto, in the province of Verona, and confirms the city's bond with its patron saint.
The 2026 edition of the Sagra di San Giovanni Battista will be held from June 18 to 22 in Piazza Umberto I in San Giovanni Lupatoto. The patronal festival, dedicated to the saint who gives the city its name, features food stalls, themed evenings, and activities for families and children, confirming itself as one of the most cherished events of the city's summer.
The specific details for the evenings will be published by the Festival Committee closer to the event.
The festival takes place in Piazza Umberto I, in the center of San Giovanni Lupatoto (VR), on the outskirts of Verona. It can be reached by car from the Verona ring road and from the A4 motorway exits.
