Edition 2025 — Festival of Saint Anthony Abbot

On January 17, 2025, Almenno San Bartolomeo celebrated the historic Festival of Saint Anthony Abbot, with a bonfire, blessing of animals, procession with floats, and food stalls featuring Bergamascan traditions.

In 2025, the Festival of Saint Anthony Abbot once again animated the historic center of Almenno San Bartolomeo on January 17th, renewing a centuries-old tradition. The bonfire in the square, the blessing of animals on the parvis of the parish church, and the procession with floats marked the day, accompanied by food stalls offering casoncelli, polenta e osei, and mulled wine.

The festival confirmed its role as a defining event for the community of Almenno and the entire western Bergamasca area.
