| HISTORICAL
COMMEMORATION "L'ASSEDIO DI CANELLI
- YEAR 1613" |
| Edizione 2007 |
| The
siege of Canelli is not only a mere
historical commemoration. It is the
feast of the "Canellesi" who
want to express their identity by recreating
their past and by revoking their origins,
as these represent the genuine spirit
of every community. |

| THE
PALIO OF ASTI |
| 2006 Edition |
| One
thousand two hundred people in medieval
costume, twenty-one horses, the whole
town decked with flags, propitiatory
dinners the day before: these are the
ingredients that make of the Palio the
most long-awaited appointment of Asti’s
September. The town is excited not only
by the tradition, but also by the genuine
passion of the villagers which feeds
a year-long festival. |
