The Mostra del Bitto is a historic festival that enlivens the center of Morbegno to celebrate its namesake PDO mountain cheese, an emblem of the local dairy tradition. The centerpiece of the event is the Cloister of the Convent of Sant'Antonio, where the traditional 'Casera' (aging cellar) is recreated to showcase the cheeses competing in the contest, including Bitto PDO, Valtellina Casera PDO, and Scimudin. Inside the convent's historic halls and cloister, visitors can also enjoy themed tastings and samplings. Meanwhile, neighboring Piazza Sant'Antonio hosts a bustling market brimming with local culinary specialties and artisanal delicacies.
