Saint Louis Festival

The festival of the Villa hamlet

The Saint Louis Festival is the celebration that enlivens the Villa hamlet of Serle every summer, a mountain community in the province of Brescia. Dedicated to Saint Louis, it is organized by the parish and the local committee together with the Pro Loco of Serle, and represents one of those events that keep the identity of small mountain communities alive.

Spit roast and local cuisine

The heart of the festival is the cuisine, with the De.Co. spit roast of Serle as the star, a traditional Brescian dish recognized as a Municipal Designation. The food and wine stalls offer typical local flavors, accompanied by the inevitable lotteries with prize draws. Reservations for the spit roast are appreciated, given the large turnout.

Music, games, and conviviality

The evenings are enlivened by ballroom music and live music, while games and moments of entertainment involve adults and children alike. The festival, with opening hours from 6:30 PM to midnight on Saturday and all day Sunday, is an occasion for the Serle community and visitors to meet, who come up to the plateau to taste the spit roast and soak up the authentic atmosphere of a Brescian village festival.
