The end-of-season street market in the historic center of Poggibonsi
Sbaraccando is a long-standing event held in the historic center of Poggibonsi, in the heart of the Valdelsa region in the province of Siena, Tuscany. Organized by the Viamaestra Natural Shopping Center Association, the event transforms the city's streets and squares into a large open-air market for a few days, dedicated to great end-of-season deals.
The concept is simple: local shops step out of their storefronts to set up outdoor stalls along the pedestrian streets, creating a vibrant, sprawling showcase that fills the heart of Poggibonsi. It is the perfect opportunity to shop at great prices while enjoying the festive atmosphere of the historic center.
Among the stalls, you will find something for every taste and age:
Sbaraccando is also designed with families in mind: recent editions have featured a play area for children in the pedestrian zones. To make the weekend even more delicious, there are freshly made fritters, a sweet tradition that accompanies the afternoons of the event.
Held between February and March, Sbaraccando marks the end of the winter season and invites residents and visitors to rediscover the center of Poggibonsi. For the Municipality of Poggibonsi and the province of Siena, it is a well-established fixture in the local commercial and entertainment calendar.
From February 26 to March 1, 2026, Sbaraccando returns to the historic center of Poggibonsi, organized by the Viamaestra Natural Shopping Center Association. For four days, the streets and squares of the center come alive with the stalls of participating shops, featuring clothing for men, women, and children, footwear, jewelry, home textiles, and local crafts, all at end-of-season prices.
Sbaraccando 2026 takes place from Thursday, February 26 to Sunday, March 1 in the historic center of Poggibonsi.
The detailed entertainment program (times and family activities) will be announced by the organizers in the days leading up to the event.
