NAUTICAL PALIO OF THE CITY OF CIVITAVECCHIA: 38TH EDITION

Rowing against early sport dropouts

The event has also set a worthy cause: helping kids, by involving all the main schools in the city to fight sport dropout by young boys and girls and to fight addictions increasingly common among teenagers. Sport is seen as a time for social union and a tool for individual growth.

All events and activities will end with the Procession on the 28th of April in honor to Saint Fermina, Patroness of Civitavecchia and protector of seafarers.

The Procession will start as usual at the Cathedral of Civitavecchia and it will be attended by school principals, teams and delegations.
