The summer feast of the small hamlet in Valmalenco
The Saint Anne's Festival takes place in the hamlet of Tornadù, in the municipality of Torre di Santa Maria, in the province of Sondrio, in the heart of Valmalenco. The feast is linked to the anniversary of Saint Anne, celebrated on July 26th, and represents one of the summer events of the small community.
Like many festivals in alpine villages, the event combines religious moments with convivial ones: the feast is an opportunity for villagers and holidaymakers to come together in a familiar and intimate atmosphere. Tornadù is one of the hamlets of Torre di Santa Maria, along with Prato and Sant'Anna, along the valley carved by the Mallero stream.
Participating in the Saint Anne's Festival means immersing yourself in the authenticity of alpine Lombardy, in a valley known for its landscapes, artisanal traditions related to soapstone, and mountain hospitality. The exact date and program are communicated by the local community closer to the event.
In 2026, the Saint Anne's Festival will be held in Tornadù in July, around the saint's anniversary (July 26th), according to the hamlet's established tradition. The detailed program will be communicated by the local community in the preceding weeks.
The detailed 2026 program will be communicated by the local community. The usual structure of the festival includes religious moments related to Saint Anne's feast day and the convivial village part.
