Costine alla Spina

A village festival on Lake Maggiore

In Brebbia, in the Province of Varese, the Ronchèe Play Park on via Donizetti becomes the beating heart of the town for a weekend in July thanks to Costine alla Spina, the festival organized by the Polisportiva Roncherese. The idea is simple and winning: grilled pork ribs, generous appetizers, and a wide selection of draft beers served under the stars, in a park just a stone's throw from the shores of Lake Maggiore.

Food, grill, and fresh beer

The focus of the event is the grill, from which the famous ribs that give the festival its name emerge, accompanied by side dishes and appetizers. Complementing this is a selection of draft beers ranging from various options. The kitchen opens in the evening, and the area is covered, ensuring the festival goes on even in case of bad weather.

Live music every evening

Each evening of Costine alla Spina has its soundtrack: live bands ranging from rock to dance music alternate on stage, transforming dinner into a true party night. It is this mix of good food and music that makes Costine alla Spina one of the most cherished events of the Brebbia summer.

The spirit of the Polisportiva

Behind the organization is the Polisportiva Roncherese, an association from the Ronchèe hamlet that has been enlivening the community life of Brebbia for years. The festival is also a moment of self-financing and gathering for the town, where volunteers of all ages get to work at the stoves and tables. An example of that provincial Lombardy where the summer festival remains an irreplaceable social glue.
