Settembre Colognese – Agricultural, Artisanal, and Commercial Fair
The ancient fair of Cologna Veneta, featuring agriculture, gastronomy, and shows
About Settembre Colognese
One of the Oldest Fairs in the Veronese Area
The Settembre Colognese is the major event at the beginning of September in Cologna Veneta, a town in the lower plain in the province of Verona. Its heart is the ancient and traditional Agricultural, Artisanal, and Commercial Fair, now in its 125th edition, one of the longest-running in the Veronese territory and a reflection of the agricultural vocation of this part of the plain.
Between Fields, Crafts, and Commerce
The fair showcases agricultural machinery and equipment, commercial vehicles, typical local products, goods, and open shops. It is an event that combines peasant tradition with the modern dimension of commerce and craftsmanship, attracting visitors and exhibitors from all over the Bassa Veronese.
Gastronomy, Shows, and Funfair
Alongside the fair, the Settembre Colognese offers a gastronomic area in Piazza Duomo with regional specialties, itinerant and stage shows, concerts, sports, recreational, and cultural activities, guided tours, exhibitions, a charity raffle, and the funfair. A rich program that transforms the historic center into a large festival space for several days.
The Identity of Cologna Veneta
Organized by the Pro Loco of Cologna Veneta, the Settembre Colognese is more than just a fair: it is the moment when the community recognizes itself in its history and traditions, and when the municipality of the Bassa Veronese tells its story to the entire region.
