Every Monday, for the entire morning, a Street Market is held in Piazza Grande. Here you can find a wide range of goods and objects (clothes, shoes, food, etc.). The traditional Market gets bigger every second Monday of the month thanks to the Flea Market held in the three main streets of the city.

From the middle of September to the first days of October, in the Main Square there is also a fun fair full of attractions for children and teenagers.

The most important event from a cultural point of view is the historical reenactment, held on the first weekend of September, which annually alternates the seventeenth century and the Napoleonic period.

Considering that the distance between the entrance gates and Piazza Grande is approximately 300 m, the best way to get around Palmanova is on foot. However, for those arriving from outside, there is a train station and a bus stop. There are no buses in the city.

The only accesses to Palmanova fortress are the three gates: Porta Udine, Porta Cividale and Porta Aquileia.
