Ancient fair of St Michael Archangel

The patron saint of Calmasino

"Far San Michele" means "to leave one's accommodation", "to clear out", "to move", and similar. This saying originated from the custom - in some regions of our country - of setting the lease expiration date for apartments on the day of San Michele.
A tradition that has been passed down since ancient times.

In Calmasino, the Ancient Fair of San Michele returns: the traditional celebration dedicated to the patron saint.
A truly rich program of activities: technical visit to the bell tower of Calmasino (by reservation), "With our noses up" - a storytelling of observing the sky with telescopes and an introduction to the Planetarium, sky observation with professional telescopes for the moon and stars, musical evenings, gathering of agricultural vehicles, tractor parade, concert by the bell ringing team, food and wine, game groups and board games, juggling and magic workshops, shows and folk songs.
