The Ferragosto festival in the hamlet of Vittadone, with mass, 'Pan e Salam', and dancing
Vittadone is a hamlet of Casalpusterlengo, a municipality in the Province of Lodi, and every August 15th it becomes the heart of a village festival that attracts residents and holidaymakers. It's one of those summer feasts that preserve the authentic spirit of the communities of the lower Lombardy region, where Ferragosto is celebrated together, between church, shared meals, and dancing.
The day begins in the morning with the Solemn Holy Mass at 9:30 AM, the central religious moment of the festival. In the evening, the sports field on Via della Vittaria comes alive with the "Pan e Salam" food stand, managed with the support of local sports associations: simple and genuine traditional dishes, to be enjoyed outdoors with company.
After dinner, it's time for dancing, with music by Gianmario's orchestra getting couples on the dance floor until late at night. There are also tasting moments and entertainment, in a festive atmosphere that appeals to all generations.
Although it's the festival of a hamlet, the Vittadone Festival is a cherished Ferragosto event in Casalpusterlengo. Free admission and a family atmosphere make it a perfect opportunity to discover village life in the Province of Lodi in the heart of summer.
In 2026, the hamlet of Vittadone will once again celebrate its Ferragosto festival on August 15th. The program, both religious and popular, includes the Solemn Holy Mass in the morning, the "Pan e Salam" food stand in the evening at the Via della Vittaria sports field, and dancing with an orchestra.
Detailed schedules will be announced by the organizers closer to the event.

Tasting moments are also planned during the evening. Updated times will be available on the Casalpusterlengo Municipality's channels.
