Religious festivals in honor of the patron saint of the village
|
  
In the Lands of Priolo, each parish celebrates a religious festival in honor of its patron. Aside from religious traditions, most festivities also incorporate profane traditions. Usually, a Mass is celebrated in honor and praise of the patron saint, followed by a procession. The streets are adorned with carpets of leaves, flowers and sawdust, forming beautiful patterns. Come the evening, the religious festivity is animated by the local philharmonic and/or pop culture groups.
