Edition 2025 — Befana in Mascali

For the 2025 Epiphany, Piazza Duomo in Mascali was transformed into a large playground for children. The Befana arrived on a motorcycle, ready to distribute candies and gifts from her traditional sack, welcomed by the enthusiasm of the children in the presence of Mayor Luigi Messina and councilors Veronica Musumeci and Valentina Gullotta. Between inflatables, popcorn, and cotton candy, the day brought an atmosphere of joy and lightheartedness to the Ionian town.

The 2025 edition of the Befana Festival in Mascali confirmed the success of the Epiphany event. Piazza Duomo, in the heart of the historic center, turned into a real playground, invaded by the many children who came to welcome the Befana.

Italy's most beloved old lady made her entrance on a motorcycle, ready to distribute candies and gifts, sparking the enthusiasm of the little ones who literally mobbed her upon her arrival. Between inflatables, popcorn, and cotton candy, the day slipped away amidst games and fun.

The initiative, strongly supported by the municipal administration led by Mayor Luigi Messina and councilors Veronica Musumeci and Valentina Gullotta, brought the Christmas holiday calendar to a beautiful close, giving children an unforgettable morning.
