WherePiazza Mons. Basilio Belotti, Oltre il Colle
Organised byComune di Oltre il Colle

In summer the main village has a weekly market: on Friday mornings in piazza Mons. Basilio Belotti, the town hall square. In 2026 the municipality set it from 26 June to 28 August, and the Pro Loco programme gives the hours, 9 am to 1 pm. The pattern has been the same since at least 2023: every June a municipal notice opens the season on the last Friday of June and closes it at the end of August, or on the first Friday of September as in 2023. In the other months the municipal notices announce no weekly market.

It returns every year: the date shown is that of the latest documented edition, the next one should be confirmed with the organisers. Last documented edition: 26 June 2026.

The dates of the last four years

The municipal notices come out every June, a few days before the first market, among the announcements on the institutional website. In 2026 the Pro Loco's summer booklet listed the markets from 3 July onwards, without the one of 26 June that the municipal notice does include.

The place is always piazzale Mons. Basilio Belotti. The 9 am to 1 pm hours are those of the Pro Loco's 2026 booklet: the municipal notices do not give them.

Where it is held and how to get there

Piazza Mons. Basilio Belotti is the square of the town hall, at number 212, and of the municipal library; the parish church of San Bartolomeo is about 200 metres away as the crow flies. To park there is the public car park near the church, which OpenStreetMap marks as free; by bus you get off in piazza Tiraboschi with Arriva's line B, which runs on Fridays.

The notices do not list the stalls: if you are looking for a specific product, it is quicker to ask the municipality, on 0345 95015.

Market and markets: the differences

The Friday market is run by the municipality, is held in the morning and lasts the whole summer with one fixed date a week. The Pro Loco's markets are something else: they are held in piazza Carrara, from 10 am to 6 pm, on almost every weekend from late May to late August and, in July and August, on Tuesdays too, with some days devoted to the producers of Coldiretti and the Cascinale Lombardo and two second-hand markets.

Summer Fridays in the village: what was on in 2026

In the Pro Loco's 2026 summer programme Friday also had other recurring events: the qi gong course at 6 pm in the main village's marquee, posture exercises at 11 am in the park at the Colle di Zambla in July and August, a few burraco card afternoons at 3 pm and, almost every week, canyoning outings for families and adults. On 14 August, from 6 pm, the same piazza Mons. Belotti hosted the beer festival.
