About Festival of Saint Crispin

On May 13th, Casalciprano, a village in the province of Campobasso, celebrates its patron saint, Saint Crispin. A solemn festival that combines religious devotion with popular tradition, featuring an evening band concert and, the day before, the celebration of the Madonna Annunziata at the Sanctuary of the Badiali. Two days that intertwine faith, music, and village identity.

The festival of the patron saint of Casalciprano

The Festival of Saint Crispin is the most important celebration for Casalciprano, a municipality in the province of Campobasso, which venerates this saint as its protector. It is celebrated on May 13th with a solemn day dedicated to the patron saint, a moment of strong cohesion for the community.

Two days of celebration

The celebrations begin on May 12th, with the festival of the Blessed Virgin Annunziata at the Sanctuary of the Badiali — the anniversary of the statue's return to the village in summer — accompanied by musical entertainment in the square. May 13th is the patron saint's day: the religious celebrations in honor of Saint Crispin conclude in the evening with the traditional band concert, an unmissable event in Molise festivals.

Tradition and community

The Festival of Saint Crispin marks Casalciprano's spring calendar and is linked to the cycle of devotion at the Sanctuary of Badiali, which accompanies the life of the village throughout the year. It is an occasion for the village to come together around its religious and popular roots, amidst processions, music, and conviviality.
