Contacts

From 17 to 20 October Bergamo becomes the European capital of cheese with “Forme”: four days of events dedicated to arts of the dairy!

The flagship event at the Bergamo Fair, with 6,000 square metres of stands set aside for guided tastings, is the “World Cheese Award” (18 October).

During the weekend it will be possible to participate in tastings also at Palazzo della Ragione, where the international award also becomes an exhibition celebrating the best cheese of 2019 and a “historic” Italian cheese.

In the year of #Leonardo500, this could only be Montébore, chosen by Da Vinci for the wedding of Isabella of Aragon and Gian Galeazzo Sforza.

Take me here: Forme 2019 - The world of cheese
