Edition 2025 — Madonna del Carmine

In 2025, the Madonna del Carmine Festival in Ascoli Satriano was celebrated during the Jubilee Year, with the novena from July 7th to 15th and the main day on July 16th. Moments of prayer, the brass band parade through the village, the induction of new confreres, and the solemn evening procession gathered the entire community around the Blessed Virgin of Mount Carmel.

The 2025 edition took place within the context of the Jubilee Year, giving special prominence to the event. Preparation was entrusted to the traditional novena from July 7th to 15th, with evening services in the Church of the Carmine.

The day of July 16th began with the brass band parading through the streets of the village to announce the festival, followed by the induction of new confreres during the morning mass. In the afternoon, the celebration presided over by Archbishop Ciro Miniero in Piazza Giovanni XXIII and the subsequent procession of the Blessed Virgin of Mount Carmel concluded the Jubilee Year, with many young people wearing the ancient ceremonial robes.
