The Ceri Race Festival in Gubbio

The Ceri Race Festival 2010 and the competition of the Crossbow of Gubbio are traditions of great importance in the panorama of the regional events under the folkloric point of view as well as the strictly historic one. Both events have been organized without any interruption since the last years of the XIIth century; every year, on 15th May, the streets of Gubbio are full of colors, with thousands of Gubbio citizens leading the three Candles, weighting each one more than 4 quintals, in an exalting race from the city to the Basilica of St. Ubaldo, through the medieval streets and up on the hill for a dip of more than 300 m.

Market of the Gaite 2010 From 18 June 2010 to 27 June 2010

The market of the Gaite 2010 or Guaite is an evocation of the everyday life of the Middle Ages that takes its inspiration from the antique division of Bevagna in four districts. Along the most suggestive streets and corners of the city, the population involves itself in the organization of handicraft shops, of typical markets of antique times and taverns, where one can taste dishes prepared according to the antique Umbrian recipes. The event is enriched of spectacles, concerts, exhibitions and conferences that, together with the competition of archery, are animating the already very busy evenings. Inspired by the habits described in antique medieval documents, Bevagna proposes the same intense atmosphere of the handicraft activities with noises and gestures forgotten by our times. In the small shops of "canapai", potters, dyers and strikers; capable handicraft maestro realize exclusive objects using the arts and the techniques of the Middle Ages. The main square, in its splendid essentialness, is the most appropriate scenario for the Market of the "Gaite" and is the corner of the most representative moments like the opening and closing ceremony, as well as the competitions between districts; on this stage, the modern Bevagna unifies itself with the medieval Bevagna, and its inhabitants abandon their everyday clothes for materials and fabrics of noble and farmers, lawyers and handicraftsmen bringing back to life the traditional activity of their ancestors. The market of the "Gaite", although it is born recently, has already taken its countenance; the willing of the animators to focus on the evocation and entertaining, maintaining the highest loyalty to history, makes nowadays of this event one of the most significant offer among the similar existing expressions.
