The "Palio" is held in Siena, a very lovely City, twice a year. This famous horse race takes place on July, 2nd and on August, 16th and represents a competition between the "contrade" (districts) of Siena. This is a very traditional and historical event dating back centuries ago, and is really an event not to be missed.

During the first weekend of September a horse tournament dating back to the 14th century takes place in Arezzo.
