Palio del Viccio 2025

The 2025 Carnival in Palo del Colle culminated with the Palio del Viccio held on Shrove Tuesday, March 4, 2025, along the incline of Corso Garibaldi. The challenge between the districts was decided after ten heats: the San Vito district took the trophy, thanks to rider Antonio Mongelli, riding the horse Iron, who was the first to burst the bladder with his lance, thus entering the event's Hall of Fame.

The program for the preceding days featured the Riders' Tour on February 23, with the equestrian parade ending in Piazza Diaz, and the Baby Palio on March 3 dedicated to children, followed by the investiture of the riders. As per tradition, the festival blended historical re-enactment, Carnival parades, and strong participation from the Apulian community.
