Festival della Polenta a Brumano

Polenta takes center stage in Brumano

The Festival della Polenta takes place in Brumano, a small mountain municipality in the province of Bergamo, at the end of the Valle Imagna. The event celebrates one of the symbolic dishes of Lombard and Alpine cuisine, polenta, in a day of celebration that attracts lovers of good food and mountain traditions.

Authentic flavors and local producers

The heart of the day is the tastings of authentic polenta, prepared according to traditional recipes, and meetings with local producers who present the excellences of the territory. There are also moments of conviviality and recreational activities designed for families, making the festival an event suitable for all ages.

Together with the Sagra del Quarantì

The Festival della Polenta is organized in collaboration with the Sagra del Quarantì, a historic event in the Bergamo area, which in 2026 will reach its 16th edition. The festival represents a stage of territorial enhancement that expands the network of events linked to the traditional flavors of the area, in a charming natural setting among the Orobic Prealps.

Brumano and the Valle Imagna

Brumano is one of the smallest and most picturesque municipalities in the province of Bergamo, perched at the end of the Valle Imagna, at the foot of the Resegone. Here, polenta is not just any dish: it is the symbol of a mountain food culture made of simple and genuine products, preserved by local families and businesses. The festival thus becomes an opportunity to rediscover this gastronomic heritage and, at the same time, to promote a territory often outside the main tourist routes. Between tastings, meetings with producers, and festive moments, the day invites you to slow down and enjoy the flavors and landscapes of the Orobic Prealps.
