On 28 and 29 July, the Cavalcata dell’Assunta brings the Gallo d’Oro and Bandiere al Vento trophies to Piazza del Popolo. Drummers and flag-wavers from the ten contrade compete with rhythm, technique, choreography, period costumes and colour.
On 28 and 29 July, Piazza del Popolo becomes the beating heart of the Cavalcata dell’Assunta, with two evenings dedicated to Fermo’s ten districts. The Gallo d’Oro Trophy sees drummers compete in performances that combine rhythmic technique, historical bearing, synchronisation and choreography. The Bandiere al Vento Trophy, meanwhile, brings the flag-wavers to the stage, with throws, coordinated movements and team displays. Two spectacular events in which district pride, period costumes and the colours of the flags transform the square into a great open-air theatre.
Piazza del Popolo is located in the heart of Fermo’s historic centre. If arriving by car, take the A14 motorway and exit at Fermo–Porto San Giorgio, then follow signs for Fermo town centre. Alternatively, take the SS16 Adriatica road and continue uphill towards the historic centre.
The reference railway station is Porto San Giorgio–Fermo, connected with the main towns and cities along the Adriatic railway line. From the station, Fermo town centre can be reached by shuttle bus or local transport connections.
To visit Piazza del Popolo, it is advisable to use the parking areas serving the historic centre, such as Girfalco car park, Station car park or Cathedral car park. A Limited Traffic Zone is active in the historic centre, so always check local signs and any access restrictions.
