Edition 2025 — Palio delle Oche

The 5th edition of the Palio delle Oche took place on the last Sunday of April 2025, in the ancient village of Campomarino. Nine districts competed in the goose race, preceded by the historical costume procession, flag-wavers, and the blessing of the animals, as part of the feast of San Vincenzo Ferreri.

The fifth edition of the Palio delle Oche confirmed the tried-and-tested formula of the re-enactment: the historical procession with knights, ladies, musicians, and flag-wavers, the blessing of the geese at the church of Santa Maria a Mare, the drawing of lots for race pairings, and the jockeys' oath. The nine districts then competed in the race along the streets of the ancient village of Campomarino, in the province of Campobasso. The event, linked to the feast of the patron saint San Vincenzo Ferreri, attracted a large crowd to the historic center decorated for the festival.
