From August 11 to 14, Urbino will once again be filled with the atmosphere of the great Renaissance courts thanks to the Festa del Duca, one of the most evocative historical reenactments in the Marche region. For four days, the historic center of the city will be transformed into a large stage dedicated to the court of Federico da Montefeltro, with parades, performances, music, culture and traditions. A perfect event for those who want to enjoy a holiday combining the sea, history and beauty.
The Festa del Duca is much more than a simple historical reenactment. It is a journey into the Renaissance of Urbino, during that extraordinary period when the court of Federico da Montefeltro made the city one of the most important cultural centers in Europe. This year, the event will take place from August 11 to 14 and will involve the historic center with events designed to recreate the atmosphere of the ducal court through both entertainment and cultural insight.
The program includes major highlights such as the Giovanni Santi Award, held in the courtyard of the Ducal Palace, the grand historical parade featuring more than 400 participants from courts near and far, and the famous Giuoco dell’Aita, one of the most spectacular traditions linked to the history of the event. Music, entertainment, historical reconstructions and activities complete the experience, transforming Urbino into a city to be discovered step by step.
The program of the Festa del Duca 2026 begins on August 11 with the Giovanni Santi Award, dedicated to the memory of Raphael’s father and conceived as an opportunity to tell the stories of people, events and values connected to the culture of Urbino.
The central event will be the grand historical parade, which will bring an authentic Renaissance atmosphere to the streets of the city center thanks to hundreds of costumed participants. On August 14, it will be time for the Grande Giuoco dell’Aita, a spectacular reenactment of a tradition established by the Duke and practiced for almost two centuries, until it was suspended in 1632.
