Monte San Savino: Pro Loco awarded ‘Quality Event’ certification for

Monte San Savino earns the “Quality Event” certification

The Pro Loco of Monte San Savino, chaired by Manola Donnini, has been awarded the “Quality Event” certification by UNPLI for organizing La Notte del Conte Baldovino. The distinction, presented in the Senate, acknowledges high standards in event quality, management and connection with the local community.

The historical reenactment, held annually with costumed parades and public celebrations through the historic center, was the only event in Tuscany to receive the certification this year. Monte San Savino also holds a double recognition: the Porchetta Festival has been certified as a Quality Festival as well.

Pro Loco associations, made up of volunteers, play a key role in preserving traditions, promoting local products and delivering cultural and tourism initiatives for their territories.

Practical information for visitors

• What to expect: historical parades, reenactments, performances and communal festivities in the village streets.
• When: an annual event; check local listings for the exact date.
• Logistics: allow extra time for parking and accommodation during festival weekends; expect possible traffic changes in the historic center.
• How to get updates: follow the Pro Loco and local tourist office websites or social channels for schedules and last-minute notices.

The certification reinforces Monte San Savino’s reputation as a destination for authentic borgo experiences and highlights the essential contribution of volunteer associations to local promotion and heritage safeguarding.
