Edition 2025 — Patronal Feast of Arcola

In 2025, Arcola also celebrated its patron saint Saint Nicholas on December 6th and 7th, with the bishop's mass, moments of devotion, food stalls, and fireworks. The festival, passed down since 1737, reaffirmed its role as an identity-defining winter event for the community of the Val di Magra village.

The 2025 edition of the Patronal Feast of Saint Nicholas renewed the ancient celebration of the patron saint in Arcola. Amidst the bishop's mass, moments of devotion, activities for children, food stalls, and fireworks, the community gathered around a tradition passed down since 1737. An event that brings warmth and celebration to the heart of winter, in the hilly village of Arcola, in the La Spezia hinterland of Val di Magra.
