Festa dei Ceri 2026
One of the most spectacular and impressive folk festivals in Europe, held every year on 15 May in medieval Gubbio. The centrepiece is a race in which three enormous wooden structures — the ceri — are carried on the shoulders of teams through the streets and up to the Basilica of Sant'Ubaldo on the hilltop. An age-old tradition that captivates the entire city and draws thousands of spectators. Gubbio is approximately one hour's drive from the campsite.
Artisti al Monte 2026
The XIV edition of Artisti al Monte takes place at the magnificent Palazzo Bourbon del Monte. This collective art exhibition features painting, sculpture, photography, drawing, graphic art, digital art, ceramics, decorative arts and more.

The twelfth edition of the Festival del Medioevo is dedicated to "Il Tempo di Francesco" — a journey to the early thirteenth century in honour of Francis of Assisi, eight hundred years after his death. Gubbio is a meaningful setting: it was here that the young Francis first donned the brown Franciscan habit in the winter of 1206. The five festival days are filled with exhibitions, markets, performances, historical re-enactments and educational activities, including a medieval book fair, calligraphy workshops and lectures on medieval life. Gubbio is approximately one hour's drive from the campsite and is itself one of the most beautiful medieval towns in Italy.
