Edition 2025 — Carmel Feast and Lu Muluni Festival

In August 2025, Racalmuto celebrated the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel with the forty-second edition of the Sagra di lu Muluni. Over the last three days of the second week of the month, the historic center experienced days of devotion and celebration, including the procession of the statue of the Madonna, solemn mass with the distribution of cuccìa, and the great evening watermelon festival with the pigliata di la 'ntinna and traditional games.

The 2025 edition of the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel confirmed its dual soul, religious and popular. At 6:30 PM, the solemn mass was followed by the traditional distribution of cuccìa; around 8:45 PM, the procession of the statue of the Madonna began along the streets of the neighborhood, accompanied by the town band.

At 10:00 PM, the square hosted the forty-second edition of the Sagra di lu Muluni, with the distribution of watermelons, the pigliata di la 'ntinna, and other traditional games, in an evening of great popular participation in the center of Racalmuto, in the province of Agrigento.
