Question

I have a layout view with a region, in that region I have a item view that triggers an event but it doesn\'t seem to be bubbled up to the layout view. Am I doing something wron

Why not just allow the click event to bubble up the DOM hierarchy and handle it in your Layout view? Something like this (fiddle here):

var MainView = Marionette.Layout.extend({
    template: "#layout-template",
    regions: {
        childRegion: "#childRegion"   
    },
    events: {
        'click #btn': 'handleButtonClick'   
    },
    handleButtonClick: function() {
       alert('btn clicked in child region and bubbled up to layout');
    }
});

var ChildView = Marionette.ItemView.extend({
    template: "#child-template"
    /*
    triggers: {
        "click #btn": "btn:clicked"   
    }*/
});
