Anacapri - Settembrata Anacaprese

The Settembrata Anacaprese, organized each year by Anacapri town council, is a competition held between the four ancient quarters of the town: Le Boffe, La Porta, Le Stalle and La Pietra.
The challenge puts the organizational, artistic, culinary, and tailoring skills of the inhabitants of Anacapri to the test, a test which the local people face with great passion, guaranteeing a fabulous show, whether or not their quarter wins. Lively and colorful, the Settembrata Anacaprese offers tourists and islanders alike an authentic slice of local folklore.
A different theme is chosen each year, which the four districts then develop according to their individual creativity. Events include a procession of allegorical floats, gastronomic evenings, sporting competitions and flee markets; everybody gets involved, with the owners of shops and private houses competing for the prize for the best dressed window or for the most ornate balcony.
