The beer festival of the Varese Prealps

The Festa della Birra di Saltrio is a traditional event held in Saltrio, a municipality in Valceresio in the province of Varese, close to the Swiss border. The festival brings the typical convivial atmosphere of outdoor beer gardens to the town, with mugs of beer, music, and entertainment, in an evening that attracts residents and visitors from neighboring towns.

Beer, food, and fun

The event offers plenty of beer accompanied by culinary specialties and musical evenings, in true village festival style.

In the spirit of 'Terre di Confine'

The Beer Festival is part of the summer calendar 'Terre di Confine', an initiative that unites the offerings of Cantello, Viggiù, Saltrio, and Clivio in a shared program of festivals, culture, and traditions. It's a way to network between neighboring municipalities and offer the region a summer full of events.

Why it's worth the evening

For those looking for a genuine end-of-summer evening, the Festa della Birra di Saltrio offers the right mix of beer, music, and conviviality, in the tranquil setting of the Varese Prealps.
