SUMMARY:Passignano (Umbria): Palio delle Barche
DESCRIPTION:The “Palio of the Boats” is divided into three stages: the first and third events are water races\, while the second stage requires contestants from the town’s four districts to carry boats on their shoulders through the steep hills and passageways of old town Passignano. The palio\, held annually on the last Sunday in July\, originates from an attempted invasion in 1495. A small number of exiles from Siena and Perugia invaded the castle at Passignano\, but were intimidated by Passignano’s violent reaction and fled the town carrying their boats on their shoulders. During the palio\, women participate in the “Race of the Jugs\,” an event that pays homage to past women who protected the castle’s water supply by carrying jugs of water with speed and grace. \nNote: dates have not been announced yet.

SUMMARY:Rome: Miracle of the Madonna of the Snow
DESCRIPTION:According to legend\, in 352 AD\, a rich and bored Roman gentleman experienced a vivid dream in which the Virgin Mary told him that a certain hill in Rome would be covered in snow in the morning\, and that he should then use his money to build a church on that site. \nBeing that Rome was deep in a steamy summer in the beginning of August\, the gentleman didn’t think much of this prophecy\, but decided to test it out nonetheless. Pope Liberius was also having a very similar dream. The gentleman and the Pope bumped into one another\, then ran together towards the hill\, where they both observed snow falling… \nToday this is the home of the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore. The miracle is re-enacted every August. \nDream of Italy is a membership website and award-winning travel publication publishing 170 issues since 2002. Get a free issue to see what we are all about.

SUMMARY:Ferragosto
DESCRIPTION:It’s the summer and in August many Italians are looking forward to Ferragosto which starts on August 15th. It’s known as a two-week vacation period with roots in ancient Rome. When Emperor Augustus invented the feriae Augusti to mark the end harvest he also made it a moment that signified a period of well-deserved rest. Later\, during the fascist regime\, this time of the year was used to promote travel within the country\, including discounts on train voyages to see all the beauty that Italy has to offer. Today it is still a largely celebrated holiday. \nIn Rome\, on the evening of August 15th (the Feast of the Assumption)\, the piazze are filled with the performances of professional dancers for the Gran Ballo di Ferragosto. Squares throughout the city are enlivened by performances of all walks of life\, from tango to rock\, hip-hop\, ballroom dancing\, and more\, with a giant concert in the Parco Archeologico of Teatro Marcello\, as well! \nDream of Italy is a membership website and award-winning travel publication publishing 170 issues since 2002.

SUMMARY:Fòcara in Novoli (Lecce): Sant'Antonio Abate Feast Day
DESCRIPTION:Fòcara in Novoli\, a small town near Lecce\, honors the town’s patron\, Sant’Antonio Abate\, on the eve of his feast day January 17. The origin of the fire ritual is said to date back at least 1\,000 years and is credited to monks from the east who settled in Novoli. The fòcara is a bonfire constructed of olive branches and grape vines in Piazza Tito Schipa. Using a huge ladder to pile the branches on top\, the fire builders make a mountain as high as a three-story house. Thousands of pilgrims walk from nearby towns to honor the Saint. In addition to the bonfire\, there are masses\, religious processions\, food\, wine\, and musical events. \nAccess 160 Issues of Our Award-Winning Travel Publication.
