Gargnano Guest Festival

A festival for Garda guests

The Festa dell'Ospite is the summer event with which Gargnano, a village in the province of Brescia on the western shore of Lake Garda, pays homage to the tourists and guests who liven up the town during the summer months. As the name suggests, it is a festival of welcome, designed to make visitors feel at home when they choose Gargnano for their lake holidays.

Piazza Feltrinelli takes center stage

The heart of the event is the picturesque Piazza Feltrinelli, directly overlooking the water, one of the most beautiful squares on the Brescia side of Garda. For two days, the square transforms into a stage with live music, shows, and gastronomy, in an atmosphere that unites residents and visitors.

• Live music and shows in Piazza Feltrinelli
• Gastronomy featuring spiedo bresciano
• Spiedo competition

Spiedo Bresciano

Among the absolute stars of the festival is the spiedo bresciano, a symbolic dish of the local gastronomic tradition, also celebrated with its characteristic competition. The Festa dell'Ospite thus intertwines tourist welcome and local gastronomic culture, confirming itself as one of the most beloved events of the Gargnano summer and a way to experience the authentic hospitality of Lake Garda.
