Grape and Wine Festival Bardolino

There certainly could not be a festival dedicated to the fine Bardolino wine, one of the excellences of Veronese winemaking recognized worldwide. The 95th Grape and Wine Festival will take place from October 1 to October 5, 2026, on the lakeside of the lakeside town.

This edition of this renowned festival, which enlivens the center of Bardolino in the last days of the summer season, is characterized by numerous events and shows. During the five days of the festival, highlights include: evening musical concerts, food and wine kiosks, promotional stands for Bardolino wine, the investiture of the new confreres of the Brotherhood of Bardolino Wine, a folk parade inaugural through the historic center, and the Bardolino Philharmonic will also be present with vocal and instrumental concerts and lots of live music. The splendid backdrop of the lakeside "dressed" for the party will make your visit unique.

A wine with important and unmistakable organoleptic characteristics: bright ruby red color, delicately fruity and fragrant, dry taste, soft with balance and considerable drinkability. This is thanks to a particularly favorable territory, where the grapes can enhance their color, aroma, and taste. The morainic hills and Lake Garda are, in fact, the essential backdrop where Corvina, Corvinone, Rondinella, and Molinara are the main indigenous grape varieties of the area.
