Madonna del Carmine Festival

The 2025 edition of the Madonna del Carmine Festival took place in Vasto on July 16th, confirming a centuries-old tradition linked to the 18th-century Chiesa del Carmine. In the morning, Holy Masses were celebrated, while in the late afternoon, the Holy Rosary preceded the solemn Eucharistic concelebration.

At the end, the procession accompanied the statue of the Virgin along the streets of the historic center, with the participation of city confraternities and the San Martino Musical Band. In the preceding days, from July 7th to 15th, the preparatory Novena was held, a moment of reflection for the Vasto parish community.
