“...the Woman, the Tavern and the Dice, these make my heart feel glad”
Cecco Angiolieri

29 uninterrupted years of 1213
The festival is now in its 29th yearly edition, without interruptions. It is among the oldest, if not the oldest in Italy. Due to its average duration of 6 days (two weekends in July) and its large scale (the entire castle), it gets to be the true and public Trojan horse to attract tourism throughout the whole year in this area. The festival is the quintessential image of the Monteriggioni cultural district; it represents the event that captures media and appeals to the collective imagination of people.
- Thank you all for your participation
