About Fiera delle Cipolle

On a Sunday in July, Piazza Feltrinelli in Gargnano goes back in time with the Re-enactment of the Onion Fair, which revives the ancient fair that for centuries marked the life of the Garda village. Amidst stalls of typical products, demonstrations of ancient crafts, and atmospheres of yesteryear, the day celebrates the peasant and artisan traditions of the Alto Garda Bresciano, with a special focus on the onion, the protagonist of the historic fair.

When Gargnano Returns to Its Ancient Fair

The Re-enactment of the Onion Fair brings to Gargnano (Province of Brescia) the echo of an event rooted in centuries past, when the fair was a central moment for trade and economic life in the village on the shores of Lake Garda. For one day, Piazza Feltrinelli transforms into a market of yesteryear.

Ancient Crafts and Flavours of the Territory

The heart of the re-enactment lies in the demonstrations of ancient crafts and the stalls of typical Garda products, with the onion โ€“ the protagonist of the historic fair โ€“ at the centre of attention. The recreated atmosphere evokes the rural and artisan life of the past, in a journey that intertwines memory, tradition, and taste.

  • Demonstrations of ancient crafts and artisan skills;
  • Stalls of typical products and local Garda gastronomy;
  • Historic atmosphere in the heart of Gargnano;
  • Entertainment and festive moments along Piazza Feltrinelli and the lakefront.

The event is part of Gargnano's summer calendar and contributes to enhancing the historical and gastronomic identity of the Garda village.
