HappiNESs Festival
The festival of the Nese oratory in Alzano Lombardo
About HappiNESs
A Community Festival in Nese
HappiNESs is the event that the San Giovanni Bosco Oratory of Nese dedicates to its community every year. Nese is a hamlet of Alzano Lombardo, a municipality in the lower Valle Seriana in the province of Bergamo, and the oratory has always been one of the main meeting points in the village. For a weekend, the festival transforms the churchyard and parish spaces into a place for gathering, with music, entertainment, and offerings for families.
What to Expect
The HappiNESs evenings generally start around 7:30 PM and continue until late at night. The program alternates moments of musical entertainment, activities for children, and oratory cuisine, in an informal and family-friendly atmosphere. It is one of those village festivals that mark the calendar of the Nese community and that the Municipality of Alzano Lombardo highlights in its event schedule.
Where it Takes Place
The festival is held at the San Giovanni Bosco Oratory, located on Via Montelungo in Nese. The hamlet is easily accessible from Alzano Lombardo and Bergamo, in the early part of the Valle Seriana.
