Edition 2025 — Pope Urban II in Banzi
On August 18, 2025, the XXVI edition of the historical re-enactment 'The Coming of Pope Urban II' took place in Banzi: a grand medieval pageant with over a hundred costumed participants - ladies, knights, men-at-arms, commoners, musicians, drummers, flag-throwers, and the Norman princes Roger and Bohemond - recalling the event of 1089.
The XXVI edition of the re-enactment The Coming of Pope Urban II animated Banzi on August 18, 2025.
