The patronal feast of mid-August in the Bassa Bresciana
San Rocco is the patron saint of Isorella, a municipality in the Bassa Bresciana, Province of Brescia. Every year, around Ferragosto, the town dedicates its patronal festival to him: several days of celebration that intertwine the religious dimension with the convivial one, attracting residents and visitors from neighboring towns.
The festival alternates religious moments – the solemn Mass and the traditional procession in honor of the saint – with the more convivial part, featuring live music, dancing, and food stands. The cuisine is one of the event's strong points, with the 'spiedo bresciano' among the most anticipated dishes and other local traditional specialties.
Organized by the Associazione Commercianti del Naviglio, the Sagra di San Rocco is a stable event in Isorella's summer calendar, usually spread over several evenings in mid-August. An opportunity to experience the patronal feast of a town in the Brescian plain, amidst popular faith, music, and good food.
For summer 2026, the return of the San Rocco Festival in Isorella is confirmed, the patronal feast traditionally held around Ferragosto. The event, organized by the Associazione Commercianti del Naviglio, alternates religious moments – solemn Mass and procession – with convivial evenings featuring music, dancing, and food, including the 'spiedo bresciano'.
The precise dates and detailed program for the 2026 edition will be published on the festival's Facebook page in the weeks before the event.
