On Sunday, October 18, 2026, Calliano Monferrato hosts the 54th edition of the Palio Ragliante, the famous parody of the Palio di Asti featuring donkeys. The event, part of the Patron Saint Festival celebrations, starts at 2:30 PM with a parade of participants in medieval costumes through the streets of the historic center. The highlight is at 4:00 PM, when the Palio Ragliante race takes place in Piazza Campo del Palio, an ironic and folkloristic event that attracts numerous visitors every year. The atmosphere is made even livelier by stalls and convivial moments throughout the day.
