Notte Bianca di Gorgonzola

A night of celebration to inaugurate summer

The Notte Bianca is one of the most cherished events in the calendar of Gorgonzola, a municipality in the Metropolitan City of Milan known worldwide for the cheese that bears its name. Every year, on an evening in early June, the historic center transforms into a large pedestrian area enlivened until night: it's the town's way of welcoming the arrival of summer.

Music, sport, and widespread taste

The formula is that of a widespread festival: no single stage, but many stations scattered among Piazza de Gasperi, Piazza Italia, Via Marconi, and the shopping streets. It ranges from foam parties to live concerts, from aperitifs with DJ sets to Latin American dancing, from karaoke to performances by local bands. For the little ones, there is the fun zone with inflatables, while a charity match takes place at the municipal stadium.

A festival of the territory

The event is organized by Fieri della Fiera in collaboration with the Municipality of Gorgonzola, the local Confcommercio, and Civil Protection. A precise choice accompanies the event: to favor local commerce, with bars, restaurants, pizzeries, and ice cream parlors in the town remaining open and offering their specialties. Admission is free, and the atmosphere is that of a community celebration, in one of the most vibrant towns in the Martesana area.
