2025 Edition

The 2025 edition of the "Tri di Maju" festival took place on May 3rd in Bisacquino, in the province of Palermo. The day followed the usual proceedings: morning celebrations and High Mass, the evocative afternoon gathering of the thirty-two statues of the Saints in the Mother Church, and the evening procession with the artistic wooden vara of the Most Holy Crucifix. The ritual concluded with the bowing of the Saints and the farewell to the Crucifix, confirming once again that the festival is the most deeply felt moment of the year for the Bisacquino community.
