Edition 2025 — Miracle of Saint Nicholas
In 2025, Pietra Ligure once again renewed the Feast of the Miracle of Saint Nicholas on July 8th, commemorating the 1525 event that, according to tradition, freed the city from the plague.
The day was marked by the solemn procession with dozens of Ligurian confraternities accompanying the saint's ark, the ringing of the original bells, and a fair in the city center. Among the most heartfelt moments were the blessing of the sea; the grand finale with the fireworks display from the pier, which illuminated the Gulf of Pietra Ligure.
