Festa della Birra di Cignone

The Cremona beer festival

In the small hamlet of Cignone, part of the municipality of Corte de' Cortesi con Cignone in the province of Cremona, the Festa della Birra (Beer Festival) is a true institution. Now on the verge of its thirtieth edition, it is one of the longest-running and most attended summer events in the Cremona countryside, capable of transforming a hamlet of a few souls into the center of local nightlife for a few evenings.

Beer, food, and music

The format is the classic and proven one of large village beer festivals: abundant draught beer, food stalls with dishes for all tastes, and above all, lots of music. Each evening features live concerts and DJ sets that get the crowd dancing until late at night, in a young and festive atmosphere. The sports field and the hamlet's square become the heart of the event.

A young and community-focused festival

The Festa della Birra di Cignone has always been a meeting point for young people in the area, but it also welcomes families. It is an example of an authentically popular festival, organized by the local committee thanks to the work of volunteers, making it a cherished event deeply rooted in the community's identity.

In the heart of Cremona's summer

Held in mid-July, the festival is part of the rich calendar of summer sagre (local festivals) in the province of Cremona, standing out for its longevity and loyal audience. For Cignone, it is the event of the year, the moment when the hamlet makes itself known and celebrates its community spirit.
