The Palio of Asti
Medieval spectacle in September
Once a year, Asti transforms into a medieval stage: during the traditional Palio, over a thousand costumed figures parade through the streets before 21 jockeys race bareback for victory on Piazza Alfieri. A unique celebration full of history, passion and true Italian spectacle – just a short drive from Sunstar Hotel Piemont.

Piedmont is famous for its white truffle – one of the world's most prized delicacies. Join an experienced truffle hunter (trifolau) and his dog as they search the undergrowth, and discover this centuries-old tradition. A tasting, of course, rounds off the experience.
