Gnari in Festa

The festival of the "gnari" of Coniolo

Gnari in Festa is the festival of Coniolo, a hamlet of the Municipality of Orzinuovi, in the Bassa bresciana region, province of Brescia. The name recalls the Brescian dialect term "gnari", meaning boys, young people: they are the organizers and the soul of this event, born from the grassroots to bring life and fun to the neighborhood.

Several evenings of music and conviviality

The festival takes place in Via Abbazia in Coniolo and is spread over several evenings. The program combines food, live music, and DJ sets, with the DJ booth keeping the audience dancing until late at night. The food stand accompanies the evenings, in an informal and youthful atmosphere that is the event's hallmark.

A festival born from the grassroots

Gnari in Festa has grown rapidly, evolving in just a few editions from a neighborhood initiative to one of the most anticipated events of the Orzinuovi summer. The ability of the young people of Coniolo to self-organize and create a participatory festival is the true value of the event, which is renewed each year with an increasingly refined and "smart" presentation.

Coniolo and Orzinuovi

The hamlet of Coniolo is part of the territory of Orzinuovi, a fortified village in the Bassa bresciana known for its Rocca (fortress) and its rich calendar of events. Gnari in Festa represents the contribution of the youngest to this vibrancy, and demonstrates how even small hamlets can express energies capable of animating the entire community of the province of Brescia.
