The patronal feast of Puos d'Alpago at the end of August
The Saint Bartholomew Festival is the patronal feast of Puos d'Alpago, the main fraction of the Municipality of Alpago, in the province of Belluno. It takes place at the end of August, around the commemoration of the saint celebrated on August 24th, and can extend over one or two weekends.
The event, curated by the Pro Loco Puos d'Alpago, revolves around the gastronomic stand with local cuisine specialties, accompanied by evenings of music and dancing. It is a community celebration that attracts residents and visitors, in a convivial atmosphere typical of Venetian village festivals.
Puos d'Alpago is one of the main centers of the Alpago basin, a mountain land overlooking Lake Santa Croce and a stone's throw from the Cansiglio plateau. The late summer festival is an opportunity to experience the authenticity of this corner of Belluno, where patronal traditions remain a reference point in the local calendar.
The Saint Bartholomew Festival returns to Puos d'Alpago at the end of August 2026. Local press (Corriere delle Alpi) has included the festival among the patronal feasts of Alpago scheduled for summer 2026.
The precise dates (one or two weekends around August 24th) and the gastronomic and musical program will be announced by the Pro Loco Puos d'Alpago shortly before the event.
Program coming soon. The usual structure includes evenings with a gastronomic stand of typical cuisine, music, and dancing. Dates and times will be published by the Pro Loco Puos d'Alpago in the weeks preceding the festival.
