Edition 2025 — A Cunnutta

In 2025, the Holy Week of Montemaggiore Belsito took place from Palm Sunday (April 13) to Easter Sunday (April 20). The most intense moment was the "A Cunnutta" procession on Good Friday, April 18 at 9:00 PM, organized by the Sant'Agata V.M. Parish: the Dead Christ carried on the shoulders of youths in dark suits and the Addolorata accompanied by the Circoline moved through the historic center amidst the chants of the brass band.

The 2025 Holy Week in Montemaggiore Belsito kicked off on Palm Sunday, April 13, and concluded on Easter Sunday, April 20. On Wednesday, the Way of the Cross took place through the village streets, while Holy Thursday was dedicated to the visit to the sepulchers.

The heart of the celebrations was Good Friday, April 18, with the "A Cunnutta" procession at 9:00 PM: the effigy of the Dead Christ, carried on the shoulders of local youths dressed in dark suits, paraded through the historic center followed by the Addolorata dressed in black and carried by the Circoline, accompanied by the marches of the local brass band in an atmosphere of deep reflection.
