The Gorle oratory festival, with casoncelli, strinù, and fun
Codeghì N'del Pà is the traditional festival of the Oratorio Cristo Nostra Pasqua in Gorle, a town in the hinterland of Bergamo. Held in Piazza Papa Giovanni XXIII, it is one of the most cherished community events for the parish, engaging children, young people, families, and the many volunteers who run the oratory.
The heart of the festival is its food, featuring typical dishes from the Orobic tradition: casoncelli, grilled meats, strinù (a typical Bergamo grilled sausage), mixed fried dishes, and polenta, all accompanied by beer, wine, and desserts. A pizza service is also available. The food stalls open in the evening and offer a menu designed to please all tastes, in a convivial and family-friendly atmosphere.
In addition to great food, the festival offers music, games, and entertainment throughout the evenings. It's an opportunity to gather at the oratory after winter, experience the community, and support the activities for the town's youth.
Like many festivals in Lombard oratories, Codeghì N'del Pà is born from volunteer effort and the desire to be together. For Gorle and the province of Bergamo, it's an event that combines gastronomic tradition, community spirit, and fun, in a simple and genuine festival that marks the end of the spring season.
The 2026 edition of the Festa Codeghì N'del Pà takes place from May 29 to 31, 2026, at the Oratorio Cristo Nostra Pasqua in Gorle, Piazza Papa Giovanni XXIII. The food stalls open from 7:30 PM with traditional Bergamo dishes: casoncelli, grilled meats, strinù, mixed fried dishes, polenta, as well as beer, wine, desserts, and pizza service. The evenings are filled with music and entertainment.
