What are the dates of the Palio?

What are the dates for the hotel/ticket packages?

Where is the race run for the Palio in Siena?

Since the mid 1600s the Palio di Siena has been run in the city’s famous city ‘square’, Piazza del Campo. The piazza is not in a typical square or rectangular shape, but more in the shape of sea shell, curved at the top, flat on the bottom. The race is run (3 laps) in a clockwise direction around the piazza on the clay “track” that is laid down in the campo a few days before the event begins.

Are tickets for the Trial Races included?

Depends on the package you select. There are a total of 6 trial races. The following hotel packages include tickets for one of the evening trial races: Grand Continental, Le Fontanelle and Relais degli Angeli. For the remaining 3 hotels, you can add these tickets for euro 85,00 per person (subject to availability).

Do the Siena hotels that you offer have a direct view of the campo?

No. There are no hotels in Siena that overlook the campo. We can however suggest our Campo Suite. See details above.

Will there be someone in Siena to assist us?

Yes, company personnel will be in Siena for the Palio. They are available to answer any questions you may have during your visit to Siena.

When will we receive our tickets?

Actual Palio Tickets for the race and tickets for the Contrada dinner will be given to you in Siena. The specific location for “pick-up” or delivery and the time for receiving your tickets will be given in with your confirmation or eventually in your time line summary; in most cases the location will be your hotel, the afternoon of our arrival.

If we cannot attend, what is the cancellation / refund policy policy?

Palio Tickets are non-refundable. However, resale provisions are given in case of cancellations – please see our Terms and Conditions for further details in regard to Tickets and Package reservations for the Palio.
