About Masciocco Festival

At the historic Cascina Masciocco in Camparada, in the province of Monza and Brianza, the Sagra del Masciocco is the Ferragosto event that has celebrated Brianza cuisine for over forty years. For five days, around August 12-16, the farmhouse fills with tables and aromas: cassoeula, tripe, buseca, venison with polenta, risotto, and the most authentic traditional dishes. A feast of flavours and solidarity, enlivened by about a hundred volunteers, with proceeds donated to local projects.

The farmhouse festival

The Masciocco Festival takes place in the historic Cascina Masciocco in Camparada, a municipality in the province of Monza and Brianza. The farmhouse, a rural Lombard building with ancient origins, provides the setting for one of Brianza's most beloved gastronomic festivals, which returns every year around Ferragosto for five days of celebration.

The flavours of Brianza

The absolute star is traditional Brianza cuisine: on the table, cassoeula, tripe and buseca, venison with polenta, snails, grilled sausages and ribs, goat cheeses, and the 'torta paesana' (local cake). A robust and authentic menu that tells the story of Brianza's peasant civilisation and attracts gourmets from all over the area.

Volunteering and solidarity

The festival is the result of the work of about a hundred volunteers who bring the farmhouse to life. The spirit of the event is one of solidarity: the proceeds are donated to support projects and activities of local associations and organisations. A festival that combines good food, tradition, and social commitment.

A tradition that lasts over time

Now in its 43rd edition in 2025, the Masciocco Festival is a summer classic in Brianza. For five evenings, music and dancing accompany dinner, in a festive atmosphere that makes Camparada a delicious destination for Ferragosto in the province of Monza and Brianza.

Masciocco Festival — edition 2026

In 2026, the Masciocco Festival returns to Cascina Masciocco in Camparada during Ferragosto week (around August 12-16). Five evenings of Brianza cuisine — cassoeula, tripe, buseca, venison with polenta, risotto — with music and dancing, and proceeds donated to charity. Precise dates and program details will be published by the organisers closer to the event.

The 2026 edition reprises the tried-and-tested festival formula: five evenings at Cascina Masciocco, around Ferragosto, featuring traditional Brianza cuisine (cassoeula, tripe, buseca, venison with polenta, risotto, sausages and ribs), accompanied by music and dancing. The event, enlivened by about a hundred volunteers, maintains its charitable purpose, with proceeds donated to local projects.
