Notes from the last check
The Giostra del Saracino in Arezzo is verified as operating: the official site reports the 150th edition on 6 September 2026, and the next edition should fall on the penultimate Saturday of June 2027 (19 June 2027), a fixed annual rule quoted from the official site, with the 2027 date corroborated only by a tourism page and no 2027 date on an official page yet.
