Hadrian’s Palace – June 24

Patronal Feast of St. Rosalie

The festival is divided into different parts of the day: in the morning there is a cattle fair in Contrada Beveraturella, the first of the season.

In the afternoon, the traditional rumpitina de pignate takes place, an ancient event in which young boys riding donkeys run to break piñatas hanging from a rope with sticks, from which ashes, talcum powder, water or coins and sweets then come out to the delight of the children, who rush to collect them.
