Edition 2025 — Aliminusa August Festivals

In 2025, Aliminusa renewed its traditional cycle of religious festivals dedicated to San Calogero, Maria SS del Rosario, and Santa Rosalia from August 22nd to 24th. Three days of processions, liturgical rites in the Church of Sant'Anna, concerts by the "Sant'Anna" Band, folk games, and evening fireworks displays. The celebrations were included among the events supported by the Sicilian Region in the 2025 annual program, with a grant dedicated to the promotion of the village's folk festivals.

The 2025 Edition

In 2025, the village of Aliminusa, in the province of Palermo, once again experienced its three days of celebration in the third week of August. The calendar alternated religious rites - masses and processions of the statues of San Calogero (August 22nd), Maria SS del Rosario (August 23rd), and Santa Rosalia (August 24th) - with secular manifestations of Sicilian tradition: the diana at dawn, the pentolaccia, tug-of-war, the ntinna, concerts in the square, and fireworks to close each evening.

The 2025 edition was recognized and supported by the Sicilian Region as part of its annual program for the promotion of folk festivals, confirming the identity and cultural value of this event for the Aliminusa community.
