A month of festivals and traditions in Assago, on the outskirts of Milan
About Maggio Assaghese
Assago's May
Maggio Assaghese is the event that transforms Assago, a municipality in the southwestern hinterland of Milan, into a succession of festivals and events throughout the month of May. Promoted by the Municipality with the involvement of local associations, the parish, businesses, and citizens, it is a well-established civic tradition designed to engage all generations.
Several Weekends of Festivities
The festival is structured into various events spread across the weekends of the month, each with its own character and location:
- live music and entertainment
- comedy and shows
- Milanese dialect theatre
- dinners in the piazza and convivial moments
- initiatives to promote the local area
The Squares and Streets in the Spotlight
The events animate the symbolic places of Assago's centre: Via Matteotti, the arcades of the civic centre, Piazzetta Geranio, and Via Roma. A network of spaces that allows you to experience the city in all its areas during the month of May.
A Community Celebration
More than just a series of events, Maggio Assaghese is a moment of aggregation that strengthens the sense of belonging of the Assago community. With music as a central element and the contribution of the local associative fabric, the event confirms its role as the main spring appointment for the Milanese municipality.
