Edition 2025 — Lake and Guest Festival

In 2025, the 57th Lake and Guest Festival brought the port of Rivoltella, a district of Desenzano del Garda, to life from August 7 to 10 with its traditional evenings of gastronomy, music, and sports. Organized by Cuori Ben Nati, the festival reaffirmed its long-standing tradition of lake-inspired cuisine, entertainment, and tournaments, drawing a large summer crowd.

The 57th edition of the Lake and Guest Festival filled the port of Rivoltella with flavors, music, and fun from August 7 to 10. The food stalls offered local cuisine and wines—including risotto, tortelli, gnocchetti, casoncelli, spit-roasted meats, and boatman-style pike—while the evenings featured musical performances starting at 9:30 PM and entertainment by the Los Caballeros sambadrome. The beach sports tournaments, a hallmark of the event, were held on Saturday (beach volleyball at Spiaggia d'Oro) and Sunday (table football at the port). Around 200 volunteers worked throughout the four evenings. The event, organized by the volunteers of Cuori Ben Nati with the patronage of the Municipality of Desenzano del Garda, confirmed its role as a highlight of the summer for the Rivoltella community and tourists in the lower Garda area.
