The Feast of San Bartolomeo in Ronconi: Traditions of the Lessinia

The Lessinia region prepares to host the traditional Feast of San Bartolomeo in Ronconi, an event that celebrates the identity and communal spirit of this mountain landscape. From August 21st to 24th, 2026, the village of Sant’Anna d’Alfaedo becomes the hub for a rich offering of local culture and gastronomy.

The festival revolves around its culinary stands, open every evening and for lunch on Sunday, featuring local specialties and the creations of the 10th Palio degli Gnocchi winners. The program provides a diverse range of activities: from live music with Medula and Zio Jazzy and Cialtrons, to traditional games like the ‘morra’ and ‘briscola’ tournaments. Sunday afternoon is dedicated to families with magic shows and pony rides, culminating in the 47th edition of the Great Tombola.

The celebration concludes on Monday, August 24th, with the Holy Mass in honor of the Patron Saint, offering a moment of reflection. Throughout the festival, a charity raffle will run, further strengthening the bond between the community and its heritage.
