The patrons of Renate are Saints Donatus and Carpoforus, celebrated on 7 August in the church dedicated to them.
Traditionally between the second and third Sunday of September, for the feast of the Madonna Addolorata, the Palio Renatese is held, in which the town's four districts take part. The town also holds Villa Mazzucchelli and the Church of Santi Alessandro e Mauro, and borders the Lambro Valley Park.
