Fiera della Madonna di Loreto
Spoleto's historic market fair of September 8th and 9th
About Fiera di Loreto
A fair that spans the centuries
The Fiera della Madonna di Loreto is one of the most deeply rooted events in the tradition of Spoleto, in the province of Perugia. It was established in 1598 by concession of Pope Clement VIII, during the governorship of Cinzio Passeri Aldobrandini. Originally set for April 21st, the fair was moved in 1664 to June 13th and finally to September 8th and 9th, to coincide with the feast of the Nativity of the Virgin.
The market along Viale Trento e Trieste
The fair winds along Viale Trento e Trieste, Largo Melvin Jones, Via Fratelli Cervi, and Via Caduti di Nassiriya, extending to the area of the former Spoleto-Norcia railway car park. Over 150 stalls offer a vast selection: from typical products like onions, peppers, and porchetta to clothing, from household goods to textiles, from footwear to terracotta, as well as animals, toys, and balloons for the little ones.
A day of popular celebration
For two days, the neighbourhood closes to traffic and transforms into a large open-air market, animated by the comings and goings of families and curious visitors. The Fiera della Madonna di Loreto remains one of the most cherished events in Spoleto's calendar, managing to combine the devotional aspect with the commercial and convivial dimension typical of Umbrian fairs.
