Saint Eurosia Festival of Salizzole
Six evenings of celebration in the courtyard of the Scaliger Castle of Salizzole
About Saint Eurosia Festival
The Saint Eurosia Festival in Salizzole
In the heart of the Bassa Veronese region, the municipality of Salizzole preserves one of the best-kept Scaliger castles in the plains. It is in the courtyard of this Scaliger Castle that the Saint Eurosia Festival takes place in early June, organized by the Nuova Associazione No-Yes: six evenings that transform the village into a large space for popular celebration.
Risotto, Flavors, and Attractions
The protagonists of the festival are the food stalls, where risotto — the signature dish of the Veronese plain, a land of rice paddies — takes center stage alongside sandwiches, local specialties, and the unmissable Aperol Spritz at the refreshment points. For families, there is a funfair and a charity raffle, while the halls of the Scaliger Castle host exhibitions that add a cultural touch to the festivities.
Music, Sports, and Solidarity
The program is rich and varied: from DJ sets to ballroom orchestras, from the school football tournament to the evening Vespa rally, to the Sunday morning solidarity walk. The grand finale features a tribute to the Pinguini Tattici Nucleari performed by young local bands. The Saint Eurosia Festival is thus much more than just a party: it is a moment of aggregation that showcases the sense of community and the joy of Salizzole.
Saint Eurosia Festival — edition 2026
The Saint Eurosia Festival 2026 will liven up Salizzole from June 4 to 9, in the evocative setting of the Scaliger Castle courtyard.
