- Artisan market and local crafts — Rows of stalls packed with handcrafted ceramics, textiles and small-batch souvenirs made by local artisans; it’s the place to pick up something genuinely Sammarinese and chat with the makers rather than buy mass-produced tat.
- Street food and tasting stands — Think simple, hearty regional bites and local sweets (try the layered wafer cakes and cured cheeses) served from food stalls and tiny enotecas where you can sample local wine without breaking the bank.
- Live music and open-air performances — From folk groups to pop bands and street buskers, the festival programs a variety of acts across small stages and plazas, creating a lively soundtrack that’s easy to wander through with a drink in hand.

- Historical pageants and folk traditions — Expect costumed processions, craft demonstrations and traditional displays that celebrate San Marino’s identity — they give the fair a rooted, almost time-warp feeling that separates it from generic county fairs.
