Latrobe
Italian
Festival
2026

In September, the air in Latrobe will be filled with the aroma of freshly baked goods and simmering tomato sauce as the town celebrates its third annual Italian Festival. Italian and American flags will flutter against the backdrop of the Laurel Highlands, while Thompson Street in the First Ward will buzz with excitement. The festival will be more than just food and music—it will be a tribute to Latrobe’s rich history, family traditions, and community spirit. Mark your calendars for September 12th and 13th, 2026, and come experience the vibrant spirit of Latrobe’s Italian Festival in the First Ward Neighborhood.
