The historic, independent, and free music festival for the youth of Filago
Filagosto Festival is one of the most interesting musical realities in the province of Bergamo. It was born in 2003 from the idea of a group of young people from Filago who, instead of going elsewhere to party, decided to bring music to their own town. From that insight, a festival has grown that over the years has gained national recognition.
Organized by the social promotion association Filago Giovani, founded in 2005, the festival is characterized by free entry concerts and a program focused on the Italian independent, indie, and singer-songwriter scene. It traditionally takes place in the first week of August, in the Festival Area of Filago and Bonate Sopra, becoming a fixed stop for many fans of Lombardy's musical summer.
After the 2025 edition's hiatus, the Filago Giovani association has launched a fundraising campaign to revive the event in 2026. This signals the commitment of a community of young volunteers to not give up on a project that, in over twenty years, has managed to combine quality music, participation, and local roots in the Bassa bergamasca area, remaining true to its independent nature.
The 2026 edition of Filagosto Festival represents a restart: after the cancellation of 2025, the Filago Giovani association launched a fundraising campaign to finance the festival's return.
The event retains its identity as an independent and free event, traditionally held in the first week of August in the Festival Area of Filago. The precise dates and concert program will be communicated by the organization through official channels once the edition is confirmed.
The detailed program and line-up for the 2026 edition have not yet been announced. Updates, along with the outcome of the fundraising campaign, will be published on the website filagostofestival.it and on the social media channels @filagostofestival.
