The patron saint of Zola Predosa is Saint Nicholas, celebrated on 6 December in the Church of Santi Nicolò e Agata.
Zola Predosa is where Amaro Montenegro is produced, and it is here that the famous Mortadella cold cut was born: the municipal territory hosts two of the sector's main companies, Alcisa and Felsineo, and every year, in early autumn, the International Mortadella Festival is held. The town also holds Palazzo Albergati and the church of San Tommaso.
