The summer festival of the 'penne nere' at Parco dei Gelsi
In Lallio, in the Province of Bergamo, the Alpini Festival is one of the most cherished events on the local calendar. Organized by the Alpini Group of Lallio, it brings the community together around the values and traditions of the 'penne nere', in an event that combines gastronomy, music, and solidarity.
The festival takes place at Parco dei Gelsi, on Via Pesenti, a green space that transforms into a large outdoor meeting place for the occasion. The communal tables, Alpine cuisine stands, and entertainment create a warm and family-friendly atmosphere where tradition and conviviality blend.
Cuisine is a highlight, with hearty and authentic dishes from Alpine and Bergamasco tradition. But the Alpini Festival is above all a moment for the community: the 'penne nere' have always been a focal point for the village's social life, and the festival is also an opportunity to support their volunteer and solidarity activities.
Lallio is located on the outskirts of Bergamo, in the Lombardy Region, easily accessible from the city and Orio al Serio airport. The Alpini Festival is the ideal occasion to experience the community spirit of the 'penne nere' and enjoy their cuisine in a relaxed and welcoming setting.
