Edition 2025 — Rievocandum 1557
The 2025 edition of Rievocandum 1557 – Gold and Black Powder was held in San Polo d'Enza (RE) from Friday, June 13 to Sunday, June 15, confirming itself as one of the most attended Renaissance re-enactments in Emilia-Romagna.
The program included the ribbon cutting and inauguration on Friday, folk concerts on Saturday – including The Rumpled from Bolzano and Celtica Pipes Rock – and the "Ruota contesa" (tug-of-war between municipalities) late Saturday evening. Sunday was dedicated to the re-enactment of The Farnese Battle of 1557, with twelve Renaissance cannons on the field, and the tournament which attracted over a hundred archers.
Among the attractions were eight taverns serving medieval dishes, beer, mead, and hippocras, the archers' village with a public shooting range, and a high-quality historical-artisanal market, for an event that surpassed the previous year's attendance of over 11,000 visitors.
