About Festival in the Countryside

Three weekends of celebration with the authentic flavors of the Bergamo countryside: the Festival in the Countryside of Mornico al Serio celebrates traditional peasant cuisine in Località Fornace, featuring pà e strinù, frogs, panzerotti, and tripe. With demonstrations of rural life, music, and entertainment every evening under a covered structure, it is a genuine and much-loved summer event in the lower Bergamo area.

The Bergamo Countryside Festival

The Festival in the Countryside in Mornico al Serio (Province of Bergamo) is a traditional summer festival celebrating the cuisine and peasant culture of the lower Bergamo region. It takes place in Località Fornace, along the Strada Francesca, where a large covered structure with a wooden floor welcomes guests, ensuring the festival proceeds in all weather conditions.

Traditional Dishes

The heart of the festival is the traditional peasant cuisine, with its most authentic dishes: pà e strinù (bread and sausage), frogs, panzerotti, tripe, and many other specialties, alongside some seasonal novelties. The kitchen is open every evening from 7:00 PM and, on Sundays, also for lunch, offering traditional dishes and new gastronomic proposals.

Between Taste, Tradition, and Music

In addition to gastronomy, the Festival in the Countryside offers demonstrations of rural life, presentations and tastings of typical products, as well as music and entertainment every evening. It is a festival that tells the deep connection between the territory of the lower Bergamo region and its peasant roots, in a convivial atmosphere that attracts numerous visitors to the Municipality of Mornico al Serio each year.
