The autumn polenta festival in Borghetto Lodigiano, between traditional cuisine and conviviality
The Polenta Festival, known as "Sagra della Polenta de Burghet", is the autumn festival of Borghetto Lodigiano, a municipality in the Province of Lodi. Organized by the Pro Loco of Borghetto Lodigiano, it celebrates one of the symbolic dishes of the peasant cuisine of the Bassa Lombardia: polenta.
The festival is held over two weekends in October, with lunches and dinners featuring polenta served according to traditional recipes. Saturday evenings are accompanied by a musical interlude, while Sunday lunch includes the classic bingo with rich prizes, in a festive atmosphere that evokes the authentic spirit of Lodi village festivals.
The Pro Loco pays great attention to hospitality: the festival is designed to be accessible to everyone, including families with strollers, people with mobility issues, and those who wish to attend with their pets. An event that, year after year, confirms the bond between Borghetto Lodigiano, its Pro Loco, and the gastronomic tradition of the area.
The 2026 Polenta Festival in Borghetto Lodigiano will maintain its autumn schedule over two weekends in October.
Organized by the Pro Loco, it offers lunches and dinners featuring polenta according to traditional Lodi recipes, with musical interludes on Saturday evenings and the classic bingo with rich prizes on Sundays. The precise dates and menus will be published by the Pro Loco closer to the event.
