Alpine Festival of Ubiale Clanezzo – Asen Festival

The 'Penne Nere' Festival in Ubiale Clanezzo

The Alpine Festival of Ubiale Clanezzo, also known as the Asen Festival, is the summer event organized by the Gruppo Alpini (Alpine Association) of this municipality in the province of Bergamo, at the entrance to Val Brembana. Held at the municipal sports field, it represents one of the most cherished moments of the local summer, bringing the community together in the spirit of Alpine traditions.

Cuisine, Music, and Conviviality

For several days, the sports field transforms into a large celebration area, with alpine cuisine served at the stands, live music evenings, and entertainment for all ages. The event maintains the authentic spirit of the 'penne nere' festivals: conviviality, solidarity, and attachment to the territory, with typical dishes from the Bergamascan tradition taking centre stage.

A Tradition Spanning Decades

The Gruppo Alpini of Ubiale Clanezzo has celebrated important founding anniversaries over the years, and the Asen Festival has become a recurring summer event, usually around the end of July. More than just a local festival, it's an occasion to strengthen community bonds and welcome the many holidaymakers who visit this corner of Val Brembana in the summer, enjoying mountain cuisine, music, and fun.
