Fanoje of Saint Joseph

The 2025 edition of the Fanoje of Saint Joseph was held on March 19th in Rignano Garganico, following the centuries-old tradition of the Gargano devotional bonfires. In the preceding weeks, volunteers and local associations collected wood to set up the Fanoje in various points of the historic center. The evening combined the religious moment — Holy Mass in the Mother Church and the procession — with the popular one, featuring the lighting of the fires, dialect music, the flavors of Gargano cuisine, and conviviality around the embers. A celebration that, every year, strengthens the bonds of the Rignano Garganico community, in the province of Foggia.
