The San Gaetano Festival in Ponti sul Mincio is an essential event for those wishing to immerse themselves in the authentic culture of the region. The origins of this celebration date back to 1869, when the local community decided to honor the Saint with a fair dedicated to livestock and crafts. Over the course of more than a century and a half, the event has evolved while maintaining its deep connection to its rural roots.
Today, the festival has been awarded the prestigious ‘Sagra di Qualità’ (Quality Festival) certification by UNPLI, a recognition that confirms its historical value and its commitment to promoting local excellence. From August 6th to 10th, 2026, visitors can enjoy a carefully curated gastronomic selection, ranging from traditional pumpkin tortelli to risotto, accompanied by wine selections from the finest local cellars. The culinary offerings are complemented by musical entertainment and areas dedicated to leisure, creating an ideal atmosphere to rediscover the pleasure of conviviality. It is an invitation to explore the profound bond between products and the land, in a setting that celebrates the identity of a village capable of renewing itself while remaining faithful to its historical memory.
