The patron of Pontoglio is Our Lady of the Assumption, whose liturgical feast falls on 15 August; the town, however, celebrates it on 17 January, on the feast of Saint Anthony the Abbot, in the Church of Santa Maria Assunta.
Typical of the town is the Casoncello di Pontoglio De.Co., produced within the municipal territory and recognized as a communal denomination since 2019. The town also holds the Church of Sant'Antonio al Ponte and the Parco Oglio Nord.
