Highland Atmosphere at Villa Spinola: The Scottish Festival in Bussolengo

From August 28th to 30th, 2026, the grounds of Villa Spinola in Bussolengo will be transformed into a piece of Scotland. The twelfth edition of the Scottish Festival invites guests to immerse themselves in a thousand-year-old culture defined by deep traditions, folk music, and a convivial spirit.

The evenings will be marked by the Celtic sounds of artists such as Uncle Bard and the Dirty Bastards, Jimmy&Scots, and Albam Fuam, providing the ideal backdrop for enjoying culinary offerings curated by the Scottish Birati Pub. Beyond the gastronomy, visitors can explore stands dedicated to traditional crafts, including kilts and authentic items, or perhaps discover their future through the ancient art of rune reading.

The highlight of the event is scheduled for Sunday, August 30th, when the park will host the traditional Highland Games. Clan competitions, ranging from caber tossing to keg lifting, will be accompanied by the solemn, evocative music of Thomas Zonato’s bagpipes. This is an unmissable gathering for those seeking an authentic taste of Scottish folklore in the heart of the Verona area.
