About Hunter's Festival

In mid-June, Nuvolera, a municipality in the province of Brescia, hosts the Festa del Cacciatore (Hunter's Festival), a village fair celebrating the area's hunting tradition. For three days, from Friday to Sunday, game cuisine and typical Brescian dishes meet evenings of music and outdoor conviviality. It is one of the most cherished summer festivals in the village, an occasion to gather with friends and families around the flavours of local tradition.

A festival with a taste of tradition

The Hunter's Festival in Nuvolera, in the province of Brescia, is the early summer fair that recalls the long hunting tradition of the pre-Alpine territory. Organized by hunters and village volunteers, it enlivens the festival grounds for three days with food stalls, musical evenings, and convivial moments.

Game cuisine

The heart of the event is the table: traditional Brescian dishes and game specialties are the stars of the evenings, along with typical local preparations. A rustic and generous cuisine that tells the story of the historical bond between the Nuvolera community and the surrounding hilly and wooded environment.

Summer music and conviviality

Alongside gastronomy, the festival offers evenings of music and entertainment under the stars, in a convivial atmosphere open to all. Together with the AVIS Festival in July and other village festivals, the Hunter's Festival is one of the events that mark the summer in Nuvolera, at the foot of the Valle Sabbia.
