The September festival dedicated to the potato of Gottolengo
In the Bassa Bresciana region, in the Province of Brescia, the municipality of Gottolengo dedicates one of its most cherished events to the potato at the beginning of September: the Sagra della Patata e dei Sapori. The Gottolengo potato, an iconic agricultural product of the area, becomes the star of a weekend of celebration that draws residents and visitors from neighbouring towns.
The event takes place at the Municipal Sports Centre, in Via Luigi Gramatica, and unfolds over several evenings with different themes:
The heart of the festival is the food stall, where the potato is served in traditional dishes and revisited recipes, alongside other local specialities.
Organised by the Municipality of Gottolengo with the involvement of local associations, the Sagra della Patata is an event that combines the promotion of an agricultural product, conviviality, and solidarity, confirming itself as one of the most attended village festivals in the Bresciana plain.
For 2026, the return of the Sagra della Patata e dei Sapori is confirmed, an annual event at the beginning of September in Gottolengo. The festival takes place at the Municipal Sports Centre in Via Luigi Gramatica and, as tradition dictates, offers several themed evenings – including the Youth Evening and the Solidarity Evening – with a food stall dedicated to the Gottolengo potato, music, and dancing.
The detailed programme for the 2026 edition, including dates and times for each evening, will be published by the Municipality of Gottolengo and on the festival's Facebook page in the weeks preceding the event.
The traditional structure of the festival includes:
The food stall dedicated to the Gottolengo potato and the themed evenings, from the Youth Evening to the Solidarity Evening.
Gottolengo is located in the Bassa Bresciana region, in the Province of Brescia, accessible by car from the SP24 and the provincial roads of the plain between Manerbio and Leno. The events are held at the Municipal Sports Centre in Via Luigi Gramatica.
Free admission. For the updated programme and evening schedules, consult the festival's Facebook page and the Gottolengo Municipality website.
