Edition 2025 — Our Lady of the Mountain

In 2025, the Festival of Our Lady of the Mountain in Salandra was celebrated on the last weekend of May, with the return of the effigy to the sanctuary on Saturday and, on Sunday, the solemn mass, the procession in the woods, and the fireworks display, attended by faithful from across the region.

The 2025 edition of the Festival of Our Lady of the Mountain drew faithful from all over Basilicata to Salandra. As tradition dictates, on Saturday the effigy returned to the sanctuary with a torchlight procession, while Sunday featured traditional fireworks, the band concert, the solemn Eucharistic celebration, the procession around the sanctuary, and, to conclude, the musical evening and fireworks display. A rite of deep Marian devotion in the woods just a few kilometers from the town.
