Summer on Lake Garda is synonymous with outdoor events, lakeside walks, and evenings to enjoy until late. But it is in
August, and in particular on the night of
Ferragosto, that the lake really comes alive, thanks to spectacular
fireworks that light up the sky and reflect on the water.

Where to see them (and some useful tips)
The fireworks are visible from the main vantage points and lakeside promenades of the towns involved. In particular, we recommend:
-
Arriving early, especially on Ferragosto, to find a good spot and enjoy the pre-show atmosphere with music, stalls, and open bars.
-
Check for any changes or postponements on the official channels of the municipalities.
- Plan ahead, especially in places such as
Salò, Limone, Garda, and Lazise, where attendance is very high.
