About Countryside Festival

In the hilly hamlet of Burligo, in Palazzago, the Festa della Campagna returns every June: an authentic parish festival, featuring typical Bergamasco cuisine, dancing, entertainment, and community gatherings, in a picturesque setting of hills, meadows, and woods. With over thirty years of history and proceeds donated to the parish, it is one of the most beloved summer events, in the heart of the province of Bergamo, at the foot of the pre-Alps.

The Hamlet's Festival

The Countryside Festival is the parish festival of Burligo, a hilly hamlet in the municipality of Palazzago, in the province of Bergamo. Nestled among hills, meadows, and woods, the festival's name reflects the soul of the place: a corner of the Bergamasco countryside where the community gathers every summer for days of conviviality and tradition.

Cuisine, Dancing, and Fun

The heart of the festival is its typical cuisine, offering traditional Bergamasco dishes prepared by parish volunteers. The evenings come alive with dancing, music, and entertainment, in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere that attracts residents and visitors from all over the region. The proceeds from the festival are entirely donated to the parish of Burligo, supporting the community's activities.
