The patron of Arcene is Saint Michael the Archangel, celebrated on 5 April with the feast of the Madonnina delle Lacrime, in the Church of San Michele Arcangelo.
Since 1994, the Corpo Musicale Franco Poloni has traditionally performed on this date. Since 2007, coinciding with the start of summer, the Arcene Rockin' Park has also been held, a whole-weekend music festival at the parco delle bandiere, featuring emerging and established bands.
