Saint Guglielmo Festival
Two days of faith, typical dinner, and conviviality in Valchiavenna
About Saint Guglielmo Festival
A Community Festival in Valchiavenna
The Saint Guglielmo Festival takes place in San Giacomo Filippo, a municipality in the province of Sondrio located at the entrance of Valchiavenna, around the church dedicated to the saint. It is an event with a strong parish and community character, organized by the village volunteers.
Faith and Conviviality
The program alternates religious moments—the Holy Mass on Saturday and Sunday—with the convivial part, featuring a typical dinner accompanied by music and a communal lunch on Sunday. There are also prize draws, auctions, and recreational activities designed for children, making the festival suitable for families.
A Gesture for the Parish
The proceeds from the event are donated to the Parish of San Giacomo: participating also means supporting the life of the local community. The festival is an excellent opportunity to discover an authentic corner of alpine Lombardy, far from the most crowded tourist circuits.
