The 149th August Fair in San Benedetto Po: Tradition and Heritage

The 149th edition of the August Fair in San Benedetto Po stands as a cornerstone of the Mantuan summer. From July 31st to August 4th, the village comes alive with a program that weaves together historical memory, entertainment, and the celebration of local craftsmanship.

The event opens with a tribute to local trade and historical artisans, followed by a cultural journey through an exhibition dedicated to the posters of past fairs. The schedule is enriched by convivial moments, such as the evocative “Dinner in the village under the stars,” and musical events ranging from dance orchestras to themed evenings. For nature and astronomy enthusiasts, the special openings of the Gorgo Astronomical Observatory and dog trials offer unique experiences.

The grand finale, on the evening of Tuesday, August 4th, will be marked by the “Poetry of Light” fireworks display, a breathtaking moment illuminating the banks of the Po River. It is an authentic opportunity to rediscover the profound bond between the land and its roots.
