Piscina Beer Festival

A beer festival in the heart of the Pinerolo area

The Piscina Beer Festival is the premier summer event in the municipality of Piscina, a small town in the Province of Turin located at the foot of the Cottian Alps, just a few kilometers from Pinerolo. Every year in early July, the Pro Loco transforms the "R. Amè" Sports Complex on Via Buriasco into a massive beer village, offering four evenings dedicated to fine drinks, great food, and live entertainment.

Beer, music, and conviviality

The soul of the festival is beer, served on tap alongside a selection of craft labels, including brews from the local Opificio della birra. Complementing the pints are food stalls, open every evening from late afternoon: burgers, sausages, pork shank, hot dogs, porchetta, pulled pork, as well as traditional Piedmontese dishes like agnolotti, not to mention the famous mixed fried fish, desserts, and refreshing drinks.

Shows and sports tournaments

Each evening features a program of music and performances ranging from tribute concerts to DJ sets, with bands and covers that get crowds of all ages dancing. Alongside the stage, the event maintains a strong sporting focus thanks to the tournaments hosted at the facilities: from Green Volley on the grass to performances animating the days, culminating in the traditional fireworks display that closes the festival.

A growing popular tradition

Born as a local village feast, the festival has grown over time to become one of the most well-known beer events in the region, attracting thousands of visitors from the Turin suburbs and the Pinerolo area. Free entry and a friendly atmosphere make it an ideal destination for a summer evening outdoors with friends and family.

Discovering Piscina and Piedmont

Attending the Piscina Beer Festival is also an opportunity to discover an authentic corner of rural Piedmont, nestled among the rice paddies and countryside of the Pinerolo plains, just a short distance from the Alpine valleys and the beauty of Turin. A small but grand celebration that showcases the hospitality and community spirit typical of the region's towns.
