Braccagni: Fairs and Festa del Maggio

Events as a reason to travel

Braccagni can be experienced through several distinct events: motoring takes center stage at Grosseto Motor Village, Game Fair Italia combines a visit to the fair with horseback rides or cycling tours, and Festa del Maggio brings local groups together on May 1. This lets you plan your trip around a specific interest rather than treating all the dates as one combined program. For travel groups with different interests, this comparison can help you choose the right focus and time to travel. The cultural celebration at Campo della Fiera is clearly distinct from the events at the fairground.

Historic vehicles and the fair

Grosseto Motor Village takes place at Centro Fiere di Grosseto, at Strada Comunale del Madonnino 11/13 in Braccagni (Grosseto). It is designed as an all-encompassing weekend experience for owners of historic vehicles, combining an exhibition, engines, music and relaxation. The focus is therefore not only on the vehicles, but also on the event weekend as a whole. If historic vehicles are the main reason for your trip, the event offers a clear thematic focus.

Fiera del Madonnino took place from April 24 to 26, 2026, at Centro Fiere Madonnino in Braccagni. These three days were part of the 2026 edition. If you would like to attend a later edition, check its dates separately rather than assuming the April dates will carry over.

Outdoor activities at Game Fair

Game Fair Italia takes place at the Madonnino fairground in Braccagni, which covers 75 hectares. From the event, visitors can head straight out on horseback rides or cycling tours to explore the surrounding Maremma area. This makes the event an opportunity to combine a visit to the fair with outdoor activity. If you are choosing between a weekend focused on historic vehicles and an event featuring horseback rides or cycling tours, the main difference is the focus of each event. The connection with the Maremma surroundings is part of the activities described for Game Fair.

Festa del Maggio on May 1

Since 1991, Festa del Maggio has brought groups of “maggerini” together every year on May 1 at Campo della Fiera in Braccagni. The celebration includes performances by improvisational poets, storytellers and folk singers. It is also accompanied by a merenda featuring typical local products. A fixed date on the calendar, spoken-word and musical performances, and a shared culinary break come together at this event. In contrast with the fair events, the focus here is on local tradition. If you choose this celebration as a reason to travel, May 1 gives your stay a clear date to plan around.

Plan your accommodation around the event date

If you choose Braccagni as your hotel search location, plan your travel dates around the specific event. May 1 is the annual date for Festa del Maggio, while April 24–26, 2026, were the dates of the past Fiera edition. For a future fair, plan around its scheduled dates.
