About Brusa in Festa

Brusa in Festa is the great civic festival of Brusaporto, the municipality on the outskirts of Bergamo overlooking the Colle dei Roccoli. Between Piazza Vittorio Veneto and the Sports Center, two days bring the entire community together with shows, concerts, talks, inflatables, stands, a town walk, and a community lunch. The 2026 edition is special: it celebrates seventy years since the reconstitution of the Municipality with the claim "Brusaporto70", in a May weekend that blends civic memory, sport, and fun for all ages.

Brusaporto comes together for a festival

Brusa in Festa is the civic festival of Brusaporto, a municipality in the province of Bergamo known for the Colle dei Roccoli. The event, promoted by the Municipality, brings residents together for a May weekend split between the historic center and the sports area, with a program that mixes culture, sport, and convivial moments.

Two days, two hearts

On Saturday afternoon and evening, Piazza Vittorio Veneto comes alive with shows, concerts, talks, inflatables, and stands; on Sunday, the focus shifts to the Sports Center, with a day entirely dedicated to sport, entertainment, and conviviality. A town walk, a community lunch, performances, and theater punctuate the program, designed to involve families, children, and local associations.

Seventy years of Brusaporto

The 2026 edition takes on a special meaning: it celebrates the seventieth anniversary of the reconstitution of the Municipality of Brusaporto, with the slogan "Brusaporto70". Through walks, tombola (bingo), sports performances, and theatrical shows, the festival also becomes a moment of collective memory and civic pride for the entire Bergamo community.

Brusaporto, between hill and plain

Brusaporto is a municipality in the province of Bergamo located between the plain and the first hills, known for the Colle dei Roccoli and its vibrant community life. Brusa in Festa is the event that best embodies the community spirit of the town: a civic festival, not tied to a religious occasion, born from the will of the Municipality and associations to create an opportunity for everyone to meet. The combination of events in the square and the sports day at the multi-purpose center allows for engaging diverse audiences, from children to the elderly, in a rich and varied program. The edition dedicated to the 70th anniversary of the Municipality's reconstitution adds a strong identity value to all of this.
