About Saint Martin's Festival

The Saint Martin's Festival is the autumn feast that every November enlivens Barasso, in the province of Varese, at the foot of the Campo dei Fiori Regional Park. Around the feast day of Saint Martin, November 11th, the village fills with an artisan market, the traditional Saint Martin's bread, food stalls, and attractions like the miniature train. An event curated by Pro Loco Barasso, with the patronage of the Municipality and the collaboration of the parish.
