The autumn patronal feast in the capital
The San Michele Festival is the patronal feast of Sant'Angelo di Piove di Sacco, in the province of Padua. It takes place between late September and early October, around the feast day of Saint Michael the Archangel, and transforms Piazza IV Novembre into the beating heart of the village.
The program includes the food stand with typical dishes, the pizzeria, and a rich entertainment offering: the funfair, card tournaments (briscola, burraco), bowls and table football, an evening dedicated to children, a charity raffle, and the traditional charity tombola. There are also moments of sport and entertainment for all ages.
The San Michele Festival is one of the most cherished patronal feasts in the Saccisica, the area of the Paduan plain around Piove di Sacco. An autumn event that combines the religious dimension of the patron saint with the popular dimension of a great community festival, deeply rooted in the life of the village.
The San Michele Festival 2026 is expected, as tradition dictates, between late September and early October in Piazza IV Novembre in Sant'Angelo di Piove di Sacco. The food stand, pizzeria, funfair, card and bowls tournaments, children's evening, charity raffle, and tombola will all return.
The precise dates and evening schedule for 2026 will be announced on the festival's Facebook page in the weeks prior. The usual structure includes several days of festivities in Piazza IV Novembre with a food stand and pizzeria, funfair, tournaments (briscola, burraco, bowls, table football), children's evening, charity raffle, and tombola.
