About Valtellinese Festival

For a weekend in May, the Comun Nuovo Festival Area fills with the aromas of Valtellinese cuisine: pizzoccheri, sciatt, polenta taragna, and braised beef with Sassella wine warm up the evenings, accompanied by live music and entertainment for all ages. A gastronomic festival that brings the most authentic flavors of the Lombardy mountains to the province of Bergamo, with good food, musical tributes, and activities for children.

The Flavors of Valtellina in Comun Nuovo

The Valtellinese Festival of Comun Nuovo, in the Province of Bergamo, is the celebration that brings the most beloved dishes of Valtellinese gastronomic tradition to the plains. At the Festival Area in via Stezzano, for three days, the kitchen offers the specialties of the Lombardy mountains in a convivial, village-fair atmosphere.

Mountain Cuisine

The menu is a journey through the flavors of Valtellina: pizzoccheri, sciatt, polenta taragna with mushrooms, braised beef with Sassella wine, pork shank and ribs with polenta, bresaola with salad. Hearty and genuine dishes, served à la carte, that tell the gastronomic story of one of Lombardy's most characteristic valleys.

Music and Fun Every Evening

Alongside the good food, the festival offers a musical event every evening: from 90s revival to a tribute to Vasco Rossi, to Latin American music. For the little ones, there are inflatables every evening and, on Sunday afternoon, an event dedicated to LEGO bricks. A program designed for families and for those who want to combine dinner with an evening of entertainment.

A Festival for the Village

The Valtellinese Festival is an event that enlivens Comun Nuovo, a small town in the Bergamo plains, attracting visitors from neighboring villages. With food, music, and activities for children, it's an opportunity to gather and discover the authentic flavors of the mountains without leaving the province of Bergamo.
