About Saint Vitus Festival

Every June 15th, San Vito di Cadore celebrates its patron saint, Saint Vitus, with the municipal patronal feast. It is the most cherished event of the summer in the Cadore region: a day of religious celebrations and folkloric moments that involve the entire community of San Vito, in the evocative setting of the Belluno Dolomites, between Monte Pelmo and Antelao.

San Vito Celebrates Its Patron Saint

The Saint Vitus Festival is the patronal feast of San Vito di Cadore, in the province of Belluno, and is celebrated every year on June 15th in honor of the saint from whom the town takes its name. It is a recurrence deeply linked to the identity of the Cadore community, aimed at all citizens of San Vito.

Religious Tradition and Folklore

The day combines religious celebrations in honor of the patron saint with moments of festivity and folklore that involve the town. A heartfelt and authentic festival, far from the major tourist circuits, which tells the traditions of a mountain community in the heart of Cadore.
