The great end-of-summer festival in Agugliaro
The Saint Bartholomew Festival is the end-of-summer festival of Agugliaro, a municipality in the Basso Vicentino area of the province of Vicenza. The name recalls Saint Bartholomew ("San Bortolo" in the Venetian dialect), celebrated on August 24th, around whom a village festival is centered that lasts for several days straddling the last week of August.
The heart of the festival is the large gastronomic stand managed by the Pro Loco of Agugliaro, where you can taste traditional dishes: gnocchi, bigoli, grilled meats, fried fish, and the famous baccalà alla vicentina, one of the symbols of the local cuisine. The evening setting offers live music, dancing, and entertainment for all ages.
The Saint Bartholomew Festival is an event rooted in the life of the village, the result of the work of Pro Loco volunteers. For Agugliaro, it represents the ultimate summer celebration, an occasion for residents and former villagers to gather, and a showcase of Vicenza's gastronomic traditions.
The 2026 edition of the Saint Bartholomew Festival will once again feature the traditional end-of-summer celebration in Agugliaro, with the Pro Loco's gastronomic stand and evening music events. The precise dates are announced by the Pro Loco of Agugliaro in the months preceding the event.
The detailed 2026 program will be announced by Pro Loco Agugliaro closer to the event. According to the established structure, the festival unfolds over several evenings with the opening of the gastronomic stand (gnocchi, bigoli, grilled meats, fried fish, baccalà alla vicentina), live music, and dancing. For updated dates and program, follow the Pro Loco's Facebook page.
Agugliaro is in the Basso Vicentino, along the SR247 Riviera Berica. About 25 km by car from Vicenza.
End of August (usually around August 24th, the feast of Saint Bartholomew). 2026 dates to be confirmed with the Pro Loco.
