The patron saints of Cocconato are Saints Fausto and Felice, celebrated on 11 September; among the churches of the village are the Chiesa di Santa Maria della Consolazione, the Chiesa della Santissima Trinità, the Chiesa della Madonna della Neve and the Chiesa di Santa Caterina.
In the summer of 1970 the patronal association of Cocconato decided to found the Palio degli Asini (Donkey Palio), in which the six quarters of the village (Airali, Brina, Colline Magre, San Carlo, Torre, Tuffo) and the neighbouring village of Moransengo take part.
