About Equestrian Gala

The Equestrian Gala in Bassano Romano is an evening show celebrating the ancient bond between horse and rider. Set in the heart of the Tuscia region in the province of Viterbo, this event organized by the Amici del Cavallo Association combines equestrian performances, music, fire shows, and light displays in an atmosphere that delights both adults and children. It is a free-admission event featuring local food stands, bringing skill, elegance, and popular tradition to the town square.

The Equestrian Gala of Bassano Romano

In the village of Bassano Romano, located in the province of Viterbo in the heart of the Lazio Tuscia, the Equestrian Gala is an evening event dedicated to the world of horses and their artistry. Organized by the Amici del Cavallo Association with the patronage of the Municipality of Bassano Romano, the event transforms the evening into a true spectacle under the stars, engaging families, enthusiasts, and curious visitors alike.

Horses, technique, and emotion

The heart of the event is the relationship between horse and rider, showcased through performances that blend technique, elegance, and tradition. The stage features riding displays, carousels, maneuvers, and highly evocative moments where the riders' mastery intertwines with the natural beauty of the animals. It is a show that speaks to everyone, from children seeing horses up close to equestrian enthusiasts who appreciate the discipline involved.

Music, fire, and lights

The Gala's format goes beyond equestrian performances: the evening is enriched with music, fire shows, and lights that accompany the acts and create a scenic atmosphere. The result is a complete show where these elements merge to offer the audience an evening of emotions that lasts until late at night.

A popular festival in the Tuscia region

Surrounding the arena is the vibrant atmosphere of a Lazio region village festival: a food stand allows visitors to enjoy local dishes and products, while free admission makes the event accessible to all. The Equestrian Gala thus fits into the rich summer calendar of Bassano Romano, a village also known for its historical heritage and the Palazzo Giustiniani Odescalchi, offering visitors a chance to discover the Tuscia region in a festive and convivial setting.

An event for the whole family

Thanks to the festive atmosphere, shows suitable for all ages, and the convivial nature of the evening, the Equestrian Gala is designed to be enjoyed as a family. Between the charm of the horses, the music, and the lights, the event confirms the vitality of equestrian traditions in Lazio and the deep bond between the community of Bassano Romano and the world of horses.
