An event not to be missed is the TOURNAMENT OF THE FOUR RIONI di Oria, which is repeated every year - since 1967, on the second weekend of August - to relive one of the most fascinating and mysterious pages in Apulian history.
The celebrations begin on Saturday with the historical procession of nobles, ladies, knights, jesters and flag-wavers with more than 1,000 costumed figures accompanying Emperor Frederick II along the festively decorated streets of the town.
At the end of the parade, the announcement of the Tournament is read and the presentation ceremony of the Palio takes place.
On Sunday, the Tournament of the Districts takes place which originates from the medieval tournament organized in 1225 by Frederick II in honor of Giovanni di Brienne, father of his future wife Jolanda and guest of the Emperor's court.
In memory of this historical fact, the four districts of Oria (Castello, Lama, Judea and Santo Basilio) challenge each other by engaging in hard medieval trials to win the coveted Palio.
