About Saint Anthony Festival
The festival that opens the summer
The Saint Anthony Festival is one of the historic festivals of Grantorto, a municipality in the Alta Padovana area in the province of Padova, in the Cittadellese region. It takes place in June at the El Filò sports facilities and has the symbolic role of opening the summer season of local festivals, kicking off a packed calendar of village celebrations.
Food, music, and fun
For several evenings, the festival offers a food stand with traditional Venetian dishes, live music, dancing, and entertainment for children. It is a convivial event that brings generations together and attracts families and visitors from neighboring towns every evening.
