Montemagno sotto le stelle e non solo

A late-summer municipal festival in Montemagno — three evenings of live music, a DJ set and dialect theatre under the stars in and around Piazza San Martino.

Why it's special

It's the town's own end-of-summer weekend: a live band and a DJ night in the square, then a Piedmontese-dialect theatre evening that ties into the long-running regional 'Cuntè Munfrà' rassegna. Small, free and entirely local — the kind of village night you'd only find by being here.

A tip
  • Free admission.
  • The music nights are in Piazza San Martino in the centre; the Sunday dialect-theatre evening is up in the Santo Stefano district at 21:00.
  • It runs alongside the town's other late-summer events, so check the comune site for the year's line-up.

At the end of summer Montemagno Monferrato throws its own three-night party. The action centres on Piazza San Martino, the square below the monumental staircase up to Santa Maria Assunta: a live band opens the weekend, a DJ takes the Saturday, and on the Sunday the festival hands over to theatre in Piedmontese dialect.

That last evening is the Montemagno stop of "Cuntè Munfrà", the long-running regional series celebrating Piedmont's dialect and storytelling — held up in the Santo Stefano district rather than the main square. It's free, unhurried and squarely for the town itself, which is exactly the appeal.
