A balance sheet for June in Pisa
The commissioner Bedini reviews Palio di San Ranieri, Gioco del ponte and Luminara: “Instrumental criticisms do not interest us and are not good for us”
PISA – At the end of June in Pisa, it is time for considerations. To make them is the commissioner for the traditions of history and identity Filippo Bediniwhich draws up a final balance sheet for the month dedicated to the celebrations of Pisan traditions.
“We had a goal: bring back to live all the great events of historical traditions – he explained – the goal has been achieved: all three major events have seen numbers on the Lungarni, in terms of the presence of people, who have not been registered for a long time. Even the Palio of San Ranieriwhich was the most distressed event, he managed to complete the entire sector from Ponte di Mezzo to Ponte della Fortezza, with the Lungarni and the stands full of people “.
“There Luminara it was appreciated by the citizens as one of the most evocative edition, both for the magic of the Arno river lit by the lights and for the fireworks display – he added – our commitment was to characterize it for a more appropriate atmosphere to the original spirit of the party: too often we forget that it is a religious holiday. We also made an important study on the new candles that worked, with a new brilliance, despite the strong wind “.
“The Game of the Bridgea very complicated machine based on volunteering that was affected more than the other events of the stop due to, despite everything has seen news and improvements – explained Bedini – with our investments, we guaranteed a life expectancy at the exhibition of at least 20 years and above all the procession is now released from the rental of costumes and accessories, which had become customary until 2018 and which was absolutely uneconomical. Collateral events related to the June in Pisaboth those organized by the associations and those for which the associations have collaborated with the Municipality “.
“In conclusion, as regards the criticisms that have occurred, I would divide them into two categories: the constructive ones, which we voted for and which we treasure, and the instrumental criticismin some ideological cases – he commented – of this second type of criticism, however, we are not interested, because they do not do the good of events and our traditions. What remains is that June of this year took place and it was not at all obvious “.
