R...estate in Piazza
The White Night of Brallo di Pregola Returns on Friday, August 7th
On Friday, August 7th, 2026, Brallo di Pregola—the highest municipality in the province of Pavia—will transform for an entire night dedicated to conviviality. From the afternoon until late at night, Piazza del Municipio and the streets of the village will host "R...estate in Piazza", the Notte Bianca (White Night) organized by the Municipality of Brallo di Pregola and the Pro Loco Brallo to liven up the town's summer with markets, food tastings, and live music.
The Arts and Crafts Market and Open Shops Along the Village Streets
Throughout the evening, the downtown streets will come alive with "Per le vie del Borgo" (Through the Village Streets), a makers' and crafters' market bringing artisanal stalls and small, original creations to the alleys of Brallo. The town's shops will remain open until late in the evening, while from 4:00 PM, the little ones can have fun with inflatable bounce houses set up in the square.
La Dolcevia: The Homemade Dessert Trail
Back by popular demand is one of the most beloved events of the evening: "La Dolcevia" (The Sweet Way). Along this route, the residents of Brallo open their courtyards to welcome visitors and offer them a taste of homemade cakes and sweets, baked according to family recipes handed down through the village. It is a simple and genuine way to discover the hospitality of Brallo di Pregola, from house to house.
Dinner in the Square with Local Flavors
Starting at 7:30 PM, Piazza del Municipio becomes a massive open-air dining table for tasting typical local dishes, prepared by Brallo's local restaurants. It is a perfect opportunity to savor the cuisine of the Pavese Apennines before making way for the music.
R...estate Live: In Concert with "I Veleno", a Ligabue Tribute Band
Closing out the evening is "R...estate Live". Taking the stage will be I Veleno, a tribute band to Luciano Ligabue, ready to take the audience of Brallo di Pregola through the greatest hits of the famous Italian rocker and keep the whole square singing along until late at night.
