The Ferragosto mountain hamlet celebration
The San Rocco Festival is the summer festival of Fraciscio, a hamlet of Campodolcino in the upper Valchiavenna, in the province of Sondrio. Organized by the Amici di Fraciscio (Friends of Fraciscio), it takes place during the Ferragosto holidays and is one of the most anticipated events of the summer for this small mountain village.
For three days, the hamlet comes alive with food stalls, music, and DJ sets, accompanied by a series of activities for all ages:
Closing the festival on Saturday, there will be a performance by Bandadram, followed by fireworks, a bonfire, and a DJ set. A spectacular finale that lights up the mountain night and brings the entire community together.
To facilitate participation, a free shuttle bus will run from Campodolcino's church square to Fraciscio on August 15th and 16th. This valuable service allows everyone to enjoy the festival safely, rediscovering the authentic atmosphere of a mountain festival.
The 2026 edition will feature the proven festival formula: three days of celebration in Fraciscio around Ferragosto, with food stalls, music, DJ sets, Beer Pong, creative workshops for children, tombola, and a grand finale with fireworks and a bonfire. A free shuttle from Campodolcino is planned. Precise dates and program details will be communicated by the Amici di Fraciscio in the weeks preceding the event.
The detailed program for the 2026 edition, including dates, times, concerts, and activities, will be published by the Amici di Fraciscio closer to the event. The usual structure includes three days (August 14-16) with food stalls, music, DJ sets, games, children's workshops, tombola, and a grand finale with fireworks and a bonfire. Free shuttle from Campodolcino on August 15 and 16.
