Edition 2025 — Borgo Stregato

The 11th edition of Borgo Stregato took place on Thursday, October 30, and Friday, October 31, 2025, in the historic center of Putignano. For two nights, the alleys of the old town were transformed into a path haunted by zombies, vampires, witches, and ghosts, featuring roaming shows, light installations, street food, markets, and children's workshops, all with free admission.

Borgo Stregato 2025: the 11th edition

The eleventh edition of Borgo Stregato brought the historic center of Putignano to life on the nights of October 30 and 31, 2025. The streets of the village were filled with costumed performers, roaming shows, and theatrical acts, while light installations and papier-mâché decorations created the gloomy and evocative atmosphere typical of the event.

Beyond the village gates, the food route offered street food, sweets, and Apulian autumn specialties, accompanied by craft markets, face-painting, artists, musicians, and DJs. The program was enriched by activities dedicated to the little ones: the "Prank Moment" in the library courtyard and "Spooky Readings" in the Sala Bia. The organization was handled by the Trullando Cultural Association with the patronage of the Municipality of Putignano and the Putignano Carnival Foundation. Free admission.
