Subsequently, the field of play, there is the knightly carousel for the award of prizes. The knights of the three districts are involved in running the ring and the challenge of that select the two Saracen knights who will contend for the prize in a spectacular head-on collision.
All evenings are enlivened by music, and popular games strictly medieval scenes, and the opening of the tavern where dishes are prepared with local products.
