Sa Sartiglia in Oristano Sardinia - Italy
Book your Sardinia holiday with EVA-Sardinia.com. Experience the REAL Sardinia!

Since five hundred years, the Sartiglia has been marking the history of Oristano. Owing to its long history, the tournament has been deeply penetrating the culture and the community of Oristano.

'Su Componidori' (the Head of the manifestation) is dressed in a special ritual. By laying a mysterious mask upon the horseman's face, a transformation has occurred.

All the horsemen join the parade to the Cathedral square, where the star joust begins. Skilled and successful riders will be prized with a little silver star as a keepsake.

After the Star joust, the parade moves towards via Mazzini, where the Pariglie will take place. Su Brocci, the small tunnel leading to via Mazzini, marks the beginning of the audacious equestrian acrobatics. Three riders gallop down via Mazzini performing spectacular routines.
