This is the oldest and longest -standing procession in Umbria, dating back to the Middle Ages. From time immemorial on the evening of 27^th JANUARY at 6.30pm, the procession winds its way along the torch-lit streets, the statue of the Patron Saint Emiliano preceded by ‘cerei’ or floats prepared and organised by the local businesses and workshops (once the local guilds and artisans.

The procession route has remained unchanged since 1264.
