Traditional Campagna Festival

The Summer of the Campagna Hamlet

Among the hamlets of Lonato del Garda, in the province of Brescia, Campagna experiences its summer highlight with the Traditional Campagna Festival. A mid-August event that brings the community together at the Campagna Oratory for several evenings of celebration, scheduled for 2026 from August 8th to 10th.

Food and Music

The formula is the tried-and-tested one for village festivals: food stalls with traditional dishes and live music to accompany the evenings. It usually starts in the evening, around 7 PM, when the oratory comes alive and becomes the meeting point for the hamlet and nearby towns, during the period when the Brescia Garda area is most crowded with holidaymakers.

A Community Festival

Organised by the Parish of Lonato del Garda and Campagna, the festival is an example of how, in the hamlets of Garda, the oratory remains the heart of community life. Volunteers and parishioners are responsible for organisation, cooking, and hospitality, keeping alive a tradition that unites generations and marks the summer of Campagna.

Among Lonato's Many Summer Festivals

The Traditional Campagna Festival is just one of the numerous events that liven up the summer in the hamlets of Lonato del Garda - from Centenaro to Esenta, from Sedena to Campagna itself with the Country Beef Fess in June. A packed calendar that tells of the territory's vitality and its ability to transform each hamlet into a small centre of celebration.
