The 2025 edition

From July 14 to 16, 2025, Pulsano celebrated its patron saint with a rich program of faith and entertainment.

On July 16, the day of the solemnity, the induction rites for the confreres, the supplication to the Virgin, and the grand procession took place along Via Chiesa, Vittorio Veneto, XX Settembre, and Costantinopoli, returning to the Church of Purgatory.

The secular program in Piazza Castello featured the tribute band Loveplay (dedicated to Coldplay) on July 14 and the Paipers in a pop-rock concert on July 15; on the 16th, the symphonic bands of Rutigliano and Conversano accompanied the procession.
