Festa della Bandiera Argentina a Costa d'Oneglia

A bridge between Liguria and Argentina

The Festa della Bandiera Argentina is held in Costa d'Oneglia, a small hillside hamlet of Imperia, in Liguria, and is promoted by the Circolo Manuel Belgrano. The event celebrates the link between the Ligurian village and Argentina, tied to the figure of Manuel Belgrano, Argentine national hero and creator of the flag, whose family roots lie precisely in Liguria.

Tango, crafts, and Argentine cuisine

For the occasion, the alleys of the medieval village of Costa d'Oneglia come alive with tango, music, crafts, and Argentine cuisine. It is a festival that brings the atmospheres and flavours of South America to the stone houses of the village, in an original blend that makes it unique in the landscape of events on the Riviera dei Fiori.

The village of Costa d'Oneglia

The setting is the evocative medieval village, perched on the hills above Oneglia: a secluded and authentic place, far from mass tourism, where the festival also becomes an opportunity to discover a hidden corner of the territory of Imperia.

An important anniversary

The Circolo Manuel Belgrano celebrates a significant milestone in 2026, a sign of the vitality of this cultural link between Liguria and Argentina. A festival that, year after year, keeps alive the memory of shared emigration and historical heritage.
