GIOCO DEL PONTE IN PISA HISTORICAL EVENT REMINISCENT

The bridge game (Giòo der Bridge in Pisa) is a historical celebration that every year on the last Saturday in June, takes place on the Ponte di Mezzo in Pisa.
The game, in which you face the judiciary (representing boroughs) gathered in parts of South and Tramontana (North and South of the Arno), consists in the contemporary version, in pushing a cart along a rail specifically mounted on the Ponte di Mezzo.
Before the battle takes place the historical procession comprising 710 participants, of whom 41 riding, all in sixteenth-century Spanish style costume. The procession winds on the four roads bordering the City Central tract of the River Arno (Lungarno).
