A day of alpine pasture life amidst nature, flavours, and conviviality above Songavazzo
The Festa in Malga Valmezzana is one of the most evocative events of the summer in Songavazzo, a village in Val Seriana at the foot of Presolana, in the province of Bergamo. The festival takes place at high altitude, at Malga Valmezzana, and each year renews the invitation to experience a day of nature, territory, and conviviality, far from the rhythms of the valley and immersed in the alpine pasture landscape.
Malga (mountain pasture huts) are the heart of mountain livestock tradition: places where cattle spend the summer grazing and where cheeses and dairy products are made that tell the gastronomic identity of the Orobie Alps. The festival is an opportunity to rediscover this world, learn about the work of the farmers, and taste the genuine products of the alpine pasture in an authentic and familiar setting.
Designed for families and mountain lovers, the Festa in Malga Valmezzana combines the beauty of high-altitude pastures with the authenticity of local flavours, in a day of outdoor celebration where conviviality is the protagonist. It is also an opportunity to walk, discover the trails of Presolana, and experience the territory in the most authentic way.
The event is organised by Azienda Agricola Benzoni Alex together with the Municipality of Songavazzo, and is part of the summer calendar of the Borghi della Presolana. An event that celebrates the bond between man and the mountain, preserving a tradition that still animates the pastures of Val Seriana today.
On Sunday, August 2, 2026, Malga Valmezzana, above Songavazzo, hosts the 15th edition of the traditional alpine pasture festival. A day immersed in the pastures of Presolana, amidst nature, genuine flavours, and conviviality, dedicated to families and mountain lovers.
The detailed program for the 2026 edition is being finalised and will be communicated on the channels of Borghi della Presolana and the organising farm. The day, according to the established tradition of the festival, unfolds in the alpine pasture with:
