BAO Music Festival

From Friday, June 26th, through Sunday, June 28th, the BAO (Brescia Arts Observatory) Music Festival will make stops in Monticelli Brusati and Provaglio d’Iseo.

Organized by the Lampedée Association, BAO is a widespread event that combines sound exploration, live concerts, and outdoor artistic performances. The goal is to help people rediscover splendid historical and natural sites—ones that lie off the beaten path of mass tourism—through events with a minimal environmental impact, offering an experience of deep connection with the landscape.
