I love celebrating my Italian heritage, and the pasta fagioli that they serve at the many Italian-American feasts and festivals that are held around Connecticut. Ziti & meatballs, sausage & peppers, soffrito, pizzelles, and oh, the fried dough. The 2022 Italian Feast/Festival season kicked off last weekend, where the Feast of St. Anthony returned for the first time since the pandemic began in 2020 to Bridgeport.
You might have missed it, so here's a few upcoming Feasts/Festivals around Connecticut in the next couple of weeks and months. Get ready Oakville, the Grand Oak Villa on Sylvan Lake Rd. is the site yet again for the 2022 Festa Della Madonna Della Libera Italian Feast. It's happening Saturday, June 25 from 3-10 PM, and Sunday, June 26 from Noon-8 PM.
