Palio of Saint John the Baptist

In 2025, the Palio of Saint John the Baptist reached its XXXI edition, renewing the event that since 1995 brings Fabriano back to the atmosphere of the 14th century every June. In that edition too, the historic center of this Marche town hosted the historical pageant with hundreds of costumed figures, artistic flower carpets, medieval taverns, and races between the four city Gates, culminating in the Hammer Challenge on June 24, the patron saint's day. The event once again proved to be among the most cherished historical re-enactments in the Marche region, capable of uniting faith, tradition, and community identity.
