The events season is concentrated mostly between June and September, peaking in July and August: that's when there are the most sagre (food festivals), patron saint festivals, evening markets and open-air concerts. Outside those months events drop off a lot, though some hinterland towns stay active through autumn and winter.

Most coastal and hinterland towns have a fixed weekly market, on a different day town by town (for example Desenzano on Sunday, Salò on Saturday, Malcesine on Saturday) — the full schedule is on each town's own page.

Yes, as a second experimental expansion alongside Franciacorta: all 16 lakeside towns of Lake Iseo (from Paratico to Costa Volpino, including the island of Monte Isola) — a separate lake about 15-20km from Garda.
