Chestnut roast, mulled wine and games in Martarei, Schio
In the locality of Martarei, in Schio, in the province of Vicenza, the Sagra di San Martino marks the arrival of autumn with its most typical aromas: roasted chestnuts, mulled wine, and hot chocolate. It's a neighbourhood festival promoted by the Comitato San Martino (Saint Martin Committee), which draws families and local residents in a warm and friendly atmosphere.
The heart of the festival is the marronata, with steaming roasted chestnuts served, alongside mulled wine, hot chocolate, hot dogs, and cotton candy. The traditional charity raffle is also present, linking the festival to a dimension of solidarity.
The Sagra di San Martino is designed primarily for children: pancake-making workshops with sugar, themed games like 'pentolacce' (piñatas), and sweet moments with candies and marshmallows mark the days. It's a simple and heartfelt event that keeps alive the tradition of neighbourhood festivals in the Alto Vicentino area. Admission is free.
The 2026 edition of the Sagra di San Martino is held on November 15th and 16th in the Martarei locality of Schio. The festival, starting in the afternoon, offers the 'marronata' and autumn flavours, a charity raffle, and a series of games and workshops designed for children. A simple and family-friendly neighbourhood festival with free admission.
