Sagra delle Pesche — Festa dei Pèrsech

Collebeato · Lombardia, Italy · Jul 9 – 19 ✅ Verified 2026

41st edition of a peach festival rooted in real local history — Collebeato was Brescia province's leading peach producer until the 1940s, growing over 90 different varieties, and the fruit remains the town's defining symbol even though production has since shrunk. Highlights include a best-peach and best-peach-dessert competition, a peach-cart parade led by the town band, a night walk through the hills to a former monastery, and a cycling race for young riders.
