Sagra della tinca al forno

On the shores of Lake Iseo, the charming village of Clusane transforms into a gastronomic stage dedicated to one of the most authentic dishes of Brescia's culinary tradition: tinca al forno (baked tench). Every July, this festival celebrates the delicate flavour of freshwater fish through a recipe that encapsulates generations of culinary wisdom, featuring tench stuffed with bread, cheese and spices, accompanied by creamy polenta in true traditional style.

The event offers far more than a simple tasting: it is a complete immersion in the lake culture of Franciacorta. The restaurants and trattorias of the village, along with stands set up throughout the town centre, serve not only the signature dish but also other typical flavours of the region, creating a 360-degree culinary experience. The atmosphere is enriched by the reflections of sunset on the water, live music and numerous entertainment initiatives that engage visitors of all ages.

The Sagra della Tinca is the ideal opportunity for those wishing to discover authentic Lombard lake cuisine, breathe in the festive spirit of a village that has made gastronomy its primary vocation, and enjoy unforgettable moments filled with performances, craft markets and local specialties.
