Edition 2025 — Saint Margaret in Agira

In 2025, Agira also celebrated the Feast of Saint Margaret the Virgin and Martyr on July 20th. As every year, the firing of cannons and the ringing of bells announced the occasion, while in the evening, the procession with the relics and the statue of the Saint traversed the historic center accompanied by the brass band, in an atmosphere of intense popular devotion among the locals.

The 2025 edition of the Feast of Saint Margaret took place in Agira, in the province of Enna, on July 20th, on the traditional day of the Saint's martyrdom. The community gathered around the Church of Saint Margaret for liturgical celebrations and the customary blessing for pregnant women, of whom the Saint is the venerated protector.

The most anticipated moment was, as always, the evening procession: at dusk, the 1784 statue and the relics of the Glorious Martyr were carried on shoulders through the streets of the village, accompanied by the brass band, amidst the participation of the faithful and visitors.
