Ca' dei Berti Hamlet Festival

A festival in a Canavese hamlet

The Ca' dei Berti Hamlet Festival is one of the events that mark the summer in Prascorsano, a town of just under eight hundred inhabitants nestled at an altitude of 590 meters in the Canavese region, in the province of Turin (Piedmont). Located about thirty kilometers north of the regional capital, the village sits in an area of hills and gentle slopes that herald the mountains of the Orco and Gallenca Valleys, dominated by the nearby Sacro Monte di Belmonte.

Like many towns in the area, Prascorsano is made up of many small hamlets and districts scattered across the territory: each preserves its own identity and, when the warm season arrives, its own festival. The Ca' dei Berti hamlet festival belongs to this tradition: it is not a major headline event, but a heartfelt occasion where residents come together to rediscover the pleasure of being together.

The spirit of the hamlet festival

Piedmontese hamlet festivals follow an ancient and beloved script: long tables are set up outdoors, traditional peasant dishes are cooked, neighbors chat, and there is plenty of room for music and cheer. It is an opportunity to strengthen the bonds of a small community and, at the same time, to welcome visitors curious to savor the atmosphere of an authentic Canavese, far from mass tourism circuits.

• Conviviality and local cuisine, featuring the flavors of the Canavese tradition
• Open-air celebration moments in the heart of the hamlet
• An opportunity to learn about life in the small hamlets of Prascorsano

When and where

The festival takes place in the Ca' dei Berti hamlet, within the municipality of Prascorsano. The 2026 edition is scheduled for the weekend of June 27 and 28, 2026, as reported by the official municipal events calendar. As this is a local festival, the detailed program is usually released by the organizers shortly before the event.

Prascorsano and the Canavese

Visiting Prascorsano during one of its festivals means discovering a corner of Piedmont made of living traditions and still-intact landscapes. The Canavese is a land rich in history, medieval villages, and typical products, and its numerous local fairs and hamlet festivals are the best way to connect with it. The Ca' dei Berti Hamlet Festival is a small piece of this great mosaic of conviviality.
