In 245 days Patron saint festival
19 June 2027
Saturday 19 June
On 19 June Bormio celebrates Saints Gervasius and Protasius in the church named after them. In winter the town's districts compete on skis, in the Palio born in 1963.
The patrons of Bormio are Saints Gervasius and Protasius, celebrated on 19 June in the church that bears their name.
The year's most heartfelt contest comes with the snow, though. In February the Palio delle Contrade is run, which in Bormio is raced on skis, traditionally cross-country: born in 1963, it has become a town tradition, with downhill versions and relays added in recent years.
