Ancient crafts and typical products of Garda in Gargnano
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.
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.
The event is part of Gargnano's summer calendar and contributes to enhancing the historical and gastronomic identity of the Garda village.
The 2026 edition takes place on Sunday, July 26, starting at 10:00 AM, in Piazza Feltrinelli. The re-enactment revives the village's ancient fair with stalls of typical products, demonstrations of ancient crafts, and the historic atmosphere that characterises this summer day on Lake Garda.
Gargnano is reached via the SS45bis Gardesana Occidentale. Piazza Feltrinelli is located in the historic centre, reachable on foot from the designated car parks.
Free admission. The re-enactment takes place on a Sunday in July, generally from the morning.
