Saint Gaetan's Festival in Valstagna
The summer feast of the San Gaetano district in the Brenta Canal
About Saint Gaetan's Festival
The festival of a mountain district
The Saint Gaetan's Festival is held in Contrà San Gaetano in Valstagna, a hamlet of the municipality of Valbrenta, in the province of Vicenza, in early August. It is the summer feast of one of the districts that characterize the slopes of the Brenta Canal, an anticipated event that draws the inhabitants of the valley and holidaymakers.
Venetian cuisine at the stand
The heart of the festival is the food stand, open every evening from 7:30 PM. On the menu are traditional specialties: mixed grills with ribs and sausage, first courses with bigoli and gnocchi with ragù or tomato sauce, and vicentina-style cod with polenta, a symbolic dish of the region.
Music, games, and charity
The evenings are enlivened by live music with orchestras and DJ sets, concerts, charity raffles, and popular games. Admission is free: a community celebration that combines good food, dancing, and socializing in the picturesque setting of the Brenta Canal.
