Edition 2025 — Palio dei Terzieri
The 52nd edition of the Palio dei Terzieri animated Città della Pieve from August 11 to 24, 2025. The city relived the atmosphere of Perugino's Renaissance with markets, taverns, shows, and the parades of the three districts: Borgo Dentro, Casalino, and Castello.
The concluding moment arrived on Sunday, August 24, with the Caccia del Toro: at 5 PM, over 800 participants paraded from Piazza del Plebiscito to the Campo de li Giochi, where archers from the three districts competed by shooting at Chianina bull-shaped targets mounted on a rotating platform, in three increasingly fast rounds. The Castello district remained the most decorated in the event's history.
