Festa dell'Asilo di Cazzago Brabbia

A village festival born from the school

In Cazzago Brabbia, a municipality of just over eight hundred inhabitants on the shores of Lake Varese, in the province of Varese, the Festa dell'Asilo is one of those events that measure the life of a small community: the end-of-year party for the kindergarten, which for generations has involved the entire village and not just the families of the enrolled children.

The Vanoletti e Gariboldi Kindergarten

The event revolves around the Vanoletti e Gariboldi kindergarten, a historic institution in the village whose roots date back to the early twentieth century. A large pine tree stands tall in the school garden, an emotional symbol for generations of Cazzago residents. It is here, between the classrooms and green spaces, that the festive day unfolds.

When it takes place

The official event calendar of the Municipality of Cazzago Brabbia confirms the Festa dell'Asilo for Sunday, June 21, 2026. It is a traditional end-of-school-year celebration, designed for children and their families, in keeping with the intimate and collected spirit of the village.

Cazzago Brabbia and its lake

Visiting Cazzago Brabbia means discovering a little-known corner of the Varese area: the village is famous for its historic ghiacciaie (ice houses), ancient structures for preserving lake fish, now a symbolic monument of the community. The Festa dell'Asilo is an opportunity to experience the village in its most authentic and communal dimension.
