Edition 2025 — Sant'Egidio and Mountain Festival
The 2025 edition of the Festival of Saint Egidio the Abbot confirmed the strength of an identity ritual in Bojano. On August 31st, the evening procession wound through the city's neighborhoods accompanied by the band, with convivial stops and impromptu banquets. At dawn on September 1st, families and groups of friends climbed to the hermitage of Sant'Egidio, on Mount Matese, for masses and the procession; then the Mountain Festival erupted, with braziers, games of morra, tents among the clearings, and nights of chatter under the stars.
