Edition 2025 — Feast of San Calogero

In 2025, Sciacca once again renewed its devotion to San Calogero with the traditional city pilgrimage to Monte Kronio. Thousands of faithful, many barefoot as a vow, covered the seven kilometers from the city up to the Basilica and the cave of the hermit saint. Between evening pilgrimages, nocturnal adoration, Eucharistic celebrations, and relic processions, the festival confirmed its role as the most heartfelt devotional event for the community of Sciacca.

The 2025 edition of the Feast of San Calogero in Sciacca revived the ancient rite of the pilgrimage to Monte Kronio, with the faithful climbing, many of them barefoot, from the city center to the sanctuary. The calendar included the evening pilgrimage departing from the Mother Church, continuous adoration in the Saint's cave, Eucharistic celebrations, and the procession of relics.

The solemnity of the Saint, traditionally set for the days around mid-June, attracted numerous pilgrims from across the province of Agrigento. In 2025, the festival once again confirmed the strength of a devotion that spans centuries and remains one of the deepest identity traits of the Municipality of Sciacca.
