Historical reenactments in Puglia, Italy

Overview

In August 2026, the Puglia region of Italy hosted several historical reenactments designed to promote cultural tourism.

Conversano held the eleventh edition of “Le Notti della Contea,” a multi-day event featuring parades, workshops, and conferences themed around “Women and Power.”

Simultaneously, Alberobello hosted the 20th edition of “La Notte dei Briganti” in the Murgia forest. This event, which coincides with the 30th anniversary of the Alberobello Trulli being named a UNESCO World Heritage site, features theatrical scenes depicting 19th-century brigandage. This year's program specifically focuses on a historical 1862 attack led by Pasquale Romano.
