San Martino in Sagra

The patronal festival of the Lodigiano village

San Martino in Sagra is the patronal festival of San Martino in Strada, a municipality in the province of Lodi nestled in the Lodigiano countryside. The festival, dedicated to the patron saint Saint Martin, is celebrated on the third Sunday of September and represents one of the most keenly felt events in the local calendar.

Between faith and tradition

The religious heart of the festival is the Solemn Mass of the Sagra, celebrated on Sunday morning and followed by the procession accompanied by the Santa Cecilia band. The spiritual dimension intertwines with the popular one, in continuity with the long tradition of Lombard patronal festivals.

Games, sports, and community

On Sunday afternoon, the town comes alive with games and sports activities at the stadium, the playground, and the festival area. As the administration emphasizes, "the sagra is a special moment to experience the town in a different way": an occasion that sees the municipal administration, associations, and merchants collaborating to create a festive atmosphere. The program already opens in the preceding days with initiatives like "La Scopa in Strada" (The Street Broom).
