About DegustaNago
DegustaNago: a wandering dinner in the village of Nago
DegustaNago is the food and wine event that brings the historic village of Nago to life every summer. Located in the municipality of Nago-Torbole, on the Trentino shores of Lake Garda, the town serves as a stunning backdrop for this culinary experience. For one evening, the squares, alleys, and most picturesque corners of the village turn into an elegant open-air restaurant: guests move from stop to stop, tasting a different dish at each station in a journey that weaves together taste, landscape, and tradition.
A gourmet path through squares and alleys
The wandering dinner format is the heart of the event: each course is served in a different part of the village, allowing the public to discover hidden gems while they dine. The menu is curated by the Trentino Chefs Association and highlights local produce, featuring dishes such as salmon trout tortelloni and pork cheek braised in Marzemino wine. The paired wines come from local cellars, particularly the Cantina Frantoio Agraria Riva del Garda, with labels ranging from Trentodoc sparkling wines to native grapes like Schiava.
Music, art, and atmosphere
The evening is made even more special by live musical accompaniment provided by the Alto Garda Music School (SMAG), whose musicians perform at various stops along the route. The dinner is intertwined with performances and exhibitions, creating an intimate and refined atmosphere that combines fine dining with the beauty of the village overlooking Monte Baldo and the lake.
A Garda Trentino event
DegustaNago is organized by the Cento - Nago-Torbole Merchants Consortium with the support of the Municipality of Nago-Torbole, Garda Trentino, and local associations. Together with its twin event, DegustaTorbole, it is part of a collective project aimed at showcasing the food, wine, and cultural identity of this corner of Trentino overlooking Lake Garda. Participation is limited, and booking is mandatory.
