The Bolgare beer festival at Parco Nochetto, with concerts, typical dishes, and community spirit
Nochinfest is the big summer festival in Bolgare, a municipality in the Province of Bergamo, which enlivens Parco Nochetto for four evenings every July. The formula is that of the best Italian village festivals: typical dishes, craft beers, and live concerts, in a friendly and welcoming atmosphere.
The history of Nochinfest begins in 2005, when a group of young people from Bolgare, driven by the desire to create a meeting point for the village, organized a first beer festival at the oratory. Since 2006, the event has found its permanent home at Parco Nochetto and has grown year by year, expanding its offerings with craft beers, concerts, and increasingly refined cuisine. Today it is managed by the Associazione Culturale Nochinfest 2.0, which has become "a large, continuously growing family".
A distinctive feature of Nochinfest is its social commitment: all profits generated during the event are donated to the community of Bolgare, through documented charitable donations. The festival thrives on the work of volunteers and the support of local businesses, maintaining the spirit of togetherness from its origins.
The evenings feature cover bands, brass bands, and groups performing great musical hits, accompanying traditional dishes and craft beers. A mix that attracts thousands of people from Bolgare and neighboring towns every year.
The 19th edition of Nochinfest returns from July 9 to 12, 2026, at Parco Nochetto in Bolgare, with four evenings of typical dishes, craft beers, and live concerts.
The music program alternates cover bands and energetic brass bands, from 2000s sounds to great hits, accompanying the festival's food and beer offerings. The program is being updated on the association's official channels.
