About Barbadafest

Barbadafest is the village festival that, since the end of July, enlivens Barbata, a small municipality in the lower Bergamo plain. Born in 1999 and organized by the Primula Association, the event transforms the sports field in Via Leonardo da Vinci into a meeting point for the community, with music, dancing, food stalls, and festive evenings. A summer event rooted in the identity of the town, in the province of Bergamo.

The summer festival in Barbata

Barbadafest is the village festival that every summer brings together the community of Barbata, a small municipality in the lower plain in the province of Bergamo. Founded in 1999, the event is organized by the Associazione Primula di Barbata and is now a classic of the local summer calendar.

Music, dancing, and food

The sports field in Via Leonardo da Vinci becomes the heart of the festival, with evenings of live music, dancing, entertainment, and food stalls offering local cuisine. A simple and convivial formula that attracts residents of the town and neighboring municipalities.

A meeting point for the community

More than just a spectacular event, Barbadafest is a moment of aggregation: between courses and dances, it's the occasion when the town of Barbata comes together on summer evenings. Its continuity, year after year, makes it a consolidated tradition of the Bergamo plain on the border with the Crema area.
