Calendimaggio, Assisi

The annual Spring festival.  I was fortunate to actually accompany the contingent from this end of the city into the Basilica for the blessing before the games begin.  So I thought you might enjoy the history and the scenery.

Wow! How colorful! Would love to hear the “drum line!”
What are they celebrating with the Spring Festival?

The characters and costuming remind me of the Passion Play presented in Oberammergau, Germany
once every ten years. Have you ever seen it?
