Saint Nicholas Festival in Creazzo
The saint's knuckle and themed evenings of Creazzo's winter
About Saint Nicholas Festival
Creazzo's Gastronomic Winter
When the cold arrives, Creazzo – a town near Vicenza known for its 'broccolo fiolaro' – warms up with the Saint Nicholas Festival. Between late November and December, a large covered and heated marquee welcomes gourmets for evenings dedicated to traditional Venetian and Central European cuisine.
The 'Stinco di Santo', the Symbolic Dish
The absolute star is the 'stinco di santo': a Bavarian-style dinner featuring pork knuckle, sauerkraut, and potatoes, preceded by a traditional porcini mushroom soup. Alongside this, the program offers themed evenings by reservation – such as the risotto evening or the evening dedicated to women – with zero-kilometer dishes in collaboration with A.Gen.Do.
Music, Games, and Community
In addition to good food, the evenings are enlivened by music and games, in a convivial atmosphere that makes the festival a meeting point for the inhabitants of Creazzo and the surrounding areas. The organization is managed by the Pro Loco of Creazzo, in the heart of the Vicenza region.
