The Town of Archers: Todi Comes Alive

Spring in Umbria isn’t just a season—it’s a feeling.

The air is fragrant with wild herbs, the hills glow green with new life, and the cobblestone streets of Todi hum with timeless beauty.

And on May 3rd and 4th, our town transforms for one of the most beloved events of the year:

Arcus Tuder: The Town of Archers | 15th Edition

Where history meets celebration—right outside your door.

A Medieval Festival You’ll Never Forget

Step into the past as Todi becomes a vibrant celebration of tradition. For two unforgettable days, the Arcus Tuder Tournament brings together archers from across Italy, all in full medieval regalia. From the dramatic Piazza del Popolo to secret corners of the historic center, the town becomes an open-air stage for competition, camaraderie, and culture.

Expect:

• Archery contests with authentic longbows and crossbows

• Flag throwers, drummers, and medieval dancers parading through the streets

• The Mostra Mercato Tipico Todi, a lively market of local artisans, handmade goods, and traditional Umbrian delicacies

• Family-friendly fun, photo-worthy moments, and endless inspiration
