The solemn Proclamation of the Palio in the heart of Garda

On August 14, 2026, the village of Garda invites you to step back in time with the evocative Proclamation of the Palio (Bandizione del Palio). Starting at 7:00 PM, the streets of the historic center will come alive as the Herald, on horseback, announces the upcoming Palio delle Contrade. A procession of locals will accompany this solemn moment, recreating the authentic atmosphere of ancient local traditions.

The evening will continue with a moment of deep devotion and community: the Torchlight Procession to the Madonna del Pign will depart from the Congress Center. The walk will be underscored by the melodies of the La Rocca Choir, lending the event a sense of quiet reflection and historical depth. It is a precious opportunity to experience the most intimate and traditional side of one of the most beloved towns on Lake Garda.
