The challenge between the districts of Polesella celebrating the rural tradition of Polesine
The Palio degli Angun is the identity festival of Polesella, a town in Polesine overlooking the Po River, in the province of Rovigo. The event pits the town's districts against each other in a challenge that blends the memory of rural life in Polesine with echoes of the splendor of Venetian nobility, who built villas and holiday homes along the Po.
The program alternates moments of re-enactment, with parades and a historical costume procession, and skill tests between the districts' teams, in a spirit of healthy popular rivalry. It is one of those festivals that, in Polesine, keep alive the bond between the community, the river, and the traditions of the territory.
In 2026, the Palio degli Angun is expected to once again animate Polesella during its usual period in the first days of June, featuring the competition between the districts, parades, and the historical costume procession. A festival that renews the town's connection with the Po River and the rural traditions of Polesine.
Program to come. Based on tradition, the event includes parades, a historical costume procession, and the challenge between the town's districts with skill tests. Dates and details confirmed by the Municipality of Polesella in the preceding weeks.
Polesella (RO), in the streets and squares of the center. Free admission.
