About Summer Kick-off Festival

The oratory in Calcinato, in the province of Brescia, kicks off summer with a festival lasting almost two weeks. From May 22nd to June 2nd, featuring sports tournaments, evenings with DJs and live bands, children's entertainment, and a kitchen open every evening, the Summer Kick-off Festival is the oratory's classic event that brings the community together. Between spit-roast, paella, and solidarity initiatives from the Casa della Carità, it's a moment of conviviality that blends fun, sport, and social commitment.

The Calcinato Oratory Festival

The Summer Kick-off Festival is the event with which the oratory of Calcinato, a municipality in the province of Brescia, ushers in the sunny season. For almost two weeks, the oratory square becomes the heart of village life, with a program that combines music, sports, food, and entertainment for all ages.

Sports and Fun

The program offers sports tournaments — football, tennis, and volleyball — alongside evenings with DJ sets, entertainment, and shows designed for adults and children. It's the tried-and-tested formula of Lombard oratory festivals: community, games, and lots of conviviality.

Dining

The kitchen is open every evening from 7:30 PM, serving traditional dishes. Special events include spit-roast and paella dinners, available by reservation, which attract food lovers and families.

Market and Solidarity

During the festival, there's also the UP market (May 23-24) and initiatives by the Casa della Carità (May 30-31): the convivial dimension thus joins the solidarity aspect, in line with the spirit of the oratory. Organized by the Pastoral Unit of the Martyred Saints of Calcinato.
