The Festa Patronale di Arzachena honors patron saints Santa Maria della Neve, Sant'Antonio di Padova, and Sant'Isidoro Agricoltore. Organized by the Comitato Fidali 86/01 in collaboration with the Parish of Santa Maria della Neve and the Municipality of Arzachena, the event offers a vibrant calendar blending liturgical celebrations with popular entertainment. The religious program includes solemn Vespers, the opening procession heading toward the Chiesa Nuova, Saturday's parade featuring traditional ox-drawn carts and folk groups, and Sunday's solemn procession escorted by local horsemen (Cavalieri) and folklore ensembles leading up to Solemn Mass. Alongside these sacred rites, visitors can enjoy sports tournaments, children's activities, and traditional performances by Sardinian Cantadores. The evening lineup features live concerts and musical shows across Piazza Risorgimento and the Tanca di Lu Palu area, headlined by the Modena Park Tribute Band, Francesco Renga, Francesco Gabbani, and the grand finale dance party 'Nostalgia 90'.
