Sandrigo, a little town near Vicenza (Veneto) has held an International Festival on Bacalà alla Vicentina annually since 1987 in late September promoted by Pro Loco Sandrigo. This is a not-to-be-missed event for fans of stockfish, which boasts a very long tradition here and is prepared according to an ancient recipe guarded by the Confraternity of Bacalà alla Vicentina. During the festivities, the figure of Pietro Querini, who returned to his homeland from his long journey with the precious stockfish, is re-enacted.
