Feste Vigiliane at Trento

        Every year Trento welcomes the arrival of the summer by the "Feste Vigiliane", in honor of city's Patron Saint. This 4-5 day festival is packed with a number of activities, including the very popular Medieval and Renaissance games "Palio dell'Oca", the "Mascherada dei Ciusi e dei Gobi", and the "Tonca", all played in ancient costumes. The festival takes place at the end of every June and I highly recommend it.
