Medieval festival
From 26 to 28 June 2026, Montefiascone symbolically returns to the year 1074. The hill town becomes a medieval stage with reenactors, a procession, camps, performances and local food culture.
A.D. 1074 uses the streets of Montefiascone as a living medieval setting. For international visitors, it is an accessible way to read the town through history, costume, food and public performance.
The event is suitable for families, history lovers and travellers who want to experience Montefiascone beyond monuments and viewpoints.
The central theme is the historical reenactment, with a procession, medieval costumes and scenic settings. The event material refers to the meeting between Matilde di Canossa and Pope Gregory VII, a concise historical frame for the 11th-century atmosphere.
The organizer's communication includes camps, falconry, music, performances, street artists, games and medieval markets. It also refers to more than 100 reenactors involved in the staging.
Rocca dei Papi fortress and the Giardini del Palazzo Vescovile are the most evocative places for the festival. The old town connects them through alleys, squares and walkable routes.
The Locanda del Pellegrino gives the festival a strong food-and-wine dimension. The available material mentions tortucce, Est! Est!! Est!!! wine, arrosticini and mead.
