Every year on San Martino's date there is the "Festa della zucca" (the Pumpkin's Festival) in half october. It is generally celebrated at the week end and on this holiday there is a medieval atmosphere because people dress up as if they were living in the Middle Ages. They were costumes: merchants, knights...; there are many activities that people can do there;for example they cam make a pumpkin to win the competition, or to eat pumpkin's products.
