Three days of music, art and street food at Urgnano Castle
Fermento Festival is the major summer event in Urgnano, a municipality in the province of Bergamo, which every year enlivens the village around its Castle and Piazza Libertà. Originally a music event, it has grown to become a multidisciplinary review capable of attracting tens of thousands of visitors from all over Lombardy.
The festival's formula revolves around three days, three stages, and about thirty live performances: concerts by emerging artists and special guests alternate from afternoon until late at night, in a packed and varied program. Alongside the music, the festival offers street food, a well-stocked vintage market, exhibitions, cultural and artistic moments, and numerous activities designed for children and families.
Among the food stalls, traditional Bergamo cuisine has ample space, alongside contemporary street food offerings. The completely free entry and the scenic setting of the Castle make Fermento Festival a popular and family-friendly event, capable of uniting different generations. With over 50,000 attendees recorded in recent editions, the event confirms itself as one of the most followed summer events in the Bergamo area.
The 2026 edition of Fermento Festival confirms the three-day formula of music and culture at Urgnano Castle, with three stages and about thirty live performances spread between Friday, July 31, and Sunday, August 2.
Alongside the concerts, street food and Bergamo cuisine stalls, the vintage market, exhibitions, and activities for children complete a program designed for all ages.
The complete lineup of the thirty shows will be announced progressively on the official channels (fermentofestival.it, Instagram @fermentofestival).
