About Ferragosto a Vigolo

Every summer, in the days leading up to Ferragosto, the small village of Vigolo comes alive with the historic festival of the Pro Loco: a week of tournaments, music, food, and games culminating on August 15th, the feast of the Assumption. Between the Ferragosto lunch, the dancing evenings, and more curious events like the wheelbarrow race, the event is one of the most cherished appointments in the town overlooking Lake Iseo, in the province of Bergamo. Food, cocktail bar, and games for children every evening.

The village's Ferragosto

Ferragosto a Vigolo is the most anticipated summer festival in Vigolo, a small municipality overlooking the heights of Lake Iseo, in the province of Bergamo. Organized by the Pro Loco (local tourism board), the event focuses on the days preceding August 15th, the feast of the Assumption, and transforms the town center into a large space for conviviality.

A week of events

The festival, now in its fortieth edition, offers a rich and varied program that combines sport, music, and tradition:

  • tournaments (human foosball, card games);
  • dancing evenings with orchestras and DJs;
  • the Ferragosto lunch and the wheelbarrow race on August 15th;
  • games and inflatables for children.

Every evening from 7:00 PM, the food service and cocktail bar are open.

A community tradition

For decades, the festival has been the heart of Vigolo's summer: a time when the village comes together and welcomes visitors from nearby towns. The strength of the event lies in the Pro Loco's volunteer work, making it a popular event deeply rooted in the community's life, in the Sebino bergamasco area, in the Lombardy Region.
