07/23/2016 – 07/31/2016, Passignano sul Trasimeno (PG)
The Palio of the boats recalls the bloody battle of 1495 that had Passignano at the center of military operations in the war between the noble families of Perugia of the Baglioni and Oddi.
Old Town, New Town, Oliveto and San Donato are the four districts that will compete in a competition in three stages.
In the first phase the boats will compete in the water until you reach the dock of the country; from here, boats on their shoulders, started fast race in the town center, with a tortuous and difficult journey between steep lanes and stairways. Back at the dock, the competitors take up the way of the lake to finish the race.
