FESTIVAL OF THE PATRON SAINT

This festival takes place on the 22nd of September, Saint Maurice’s Day. Thanks to the contribution of various volunteers, it is possible to enjoy wonderfully cooked chops, ribs and sausages, etc. The local association Pro Loco provides a big tent for the occasion and evenings are held to the tune of ball-room and disco music.

In the same period, eighteen and nineteen years old youngsters organise the “festa dei coscritti” (conscripts’ festival). Tradition has it that these young people decorate their cars with slogans singing the praises of alcoholic beverages consumption and with farming paraphernalia such as hay-bails, wooden barrels and demijohns. Often too they put sirens and flashing lights over their cars.
