About Bondone in Strada
Bondone in Strada: The village becomes a stage
Bondone in Strada – International Street Artists Festival is an event that brings the magic of live performance to the streets of Bondone every summer. This small municipality in the province of Trento is nestled in the Giudicarie Valleys and overlooks Lake Idro. Recognized as one of the Most Beautiful Villages in Italy, Bondone provides a stunning backdrop: cobblestone alleys, glimpses of the lake, and the lakeside hamlet of Baitoni set the scene for two days of street art.
A widespread show, face-to-face with the audience
For two days, the village transforms into an open-air stage welcoming artists from all over the world. Acrobats, tightrope walkers, jugglers, clowns, and street theatre companies perform 'on the road', face-to-face with spectators throughout the village's streets, alleys, and squares. The roving format allows visitors to wander from one performance to the next in a festive atmosphere perfect for the whole family. Each edition concludes with a night-time show featuring drums and fire, one of the most anticipated and dramatic moments of the festival.
An international festival in the heart of Trentino
Founded to enliven the historic centre of Bondone, the festival has grown into a key summer event in Trentino, attracting thousands of spectators. Organized by the Madonna di Campiglio Tourism Board, the festival highlights the bond between live performance and local heritage, blending street art with the beauty of a village overlooking the water in the Trentino-Alto Adige region.
Flavours and tradition
Alongside the performances, there is a culinary offering curated by local producers, featuring traditional Trentino dishes such as polenta carbonera and polenta e spiedo (polenta with spit-roasted meat), which accompany the evenings and complete the village's convivial atmosphere. Bondone in Strada is a wonderful opportunity to discover an authentic corner of Trentino, combining culture, nature, and mountain flavours.
