Saint John on Monte Baldo

The Saint John's Festival is celebrated in Ferrara di Monte Baldo, a municipality in the province of Verona nestled in the Baldo massif, on June 24th, the day dedicated to Saint John the Baptist. It is one of the most cherished events by the village community, combining the religious dimension with a festive and convivial atmosphere.

A tradition between faith and solstice

The feast of Saint John falls near the summer solstice and has its roots in the ancient farming traditions of the Venetian mountains. In Ferrara di Monte Baldo, the occasion is experienced as a moment for community gathering, a celebration, and a reunion in the height of the Baldo summer.

The festival is one of the events that mark the village's summer calendar, alongside the Veneto Truffle Fair and 'Il Borgo sotto le Stelle' (The Village Under the Stars). It's an opportunity to discover the authentic atmosphere of a small mountain village overlooking Lake Garda, where religious and popular traditions are still deeply rooted.
