About Festa di Lezza

Every September, the hamlet of Lezza in Ponte Lambro, province of Como, comes alive for its village festival: two days of conviviality with aperitifs accompanied by music, outdoor dinners, a market and activities for children. A popular event, rooted in the community of Vallassina, organised by the Pro Loco with the support of the Municipality.

The festival of the village of Lezza

The Festa di Lezza is the end-of-summer event for the hamlet of Lezza, a small village in the Municipality of Ponte Lambro, in the province of Como, along the Vallassina ridge. It is usually held in September, along Via Volta and the village spaces, and is organised by the local Pro Loco (local development association).

Two days in the village

In recent editions, the festival has been spread over two days. Saturday evening opens with an aperitif accompanied by music, followed by an outdoor dinner and a live concert. Sunday is dedicated to the market and family activities, with entertainment and musical moments also designed for children; with the arrival of autumn, roasted chestnuts, a classic of the season, make an appearance.

A festival for the community

The Festa di Lezza was created as an occasion for the inhabitants of the hamlet and surrounding areas to meet. In 2026, the organisation was the subject of a co-design process promoted by the Municipality of Ponte Lambro, a sign of the attention that the administration and associative realities of the territory dedicate to this event. For updates on the programme, it is advisable to follow the official channels of the Municipality and the Pro Loco.
