Giostra del Saracino, Arezzo, Yearly "Knight" Horse Fight. Here comes the winner!

The part of the city who has won the horsefight is waiting for their "knight"!

Arezzo is home to an annual medieval festival called the Saracen Joust (Giostra del Saracino). In this, "knights" on horseback representing different areas of the town charge at a wooden target attached to a carving of a Saracen king and score points according to accuracy. Virtually all the town's people dress-up in medieval costume and enthusiastically cheer on the competitors.
