Every year on the evening of August 14th before the Assumption of Mary (Ferragosto) a big festival with a lot of folklore and music is organized in Gravedona. Really worth seeing is the parade of illuminated barges accompanied by impressive music (from 9 p.m.) and from 10 p.m. firing of the probably spectacular fireworks on Lake Como.
