Edition 2025 — Saint Agatha and Sbadoclar

In February 2025, Sfruz celebrated its patron saint, Saint Agatha, with Holy Mass and the distribution of Saint Agatha's Bread, continuing the tradition of the 17th-century vow. The protagonists of the edition were the village youth, who learned and carried on the Sbadoclar, the festive bell-ringing in honor of the saint.

The 2025 edition of the Saint Agatha festival in Sfruz, Val di Non, confirmed the community's strong bond with its patron saint. During Holy Mass, Saint Agatha's Bread was distributed, following the tradition born from a 17th-century vow after a fire. The most emblematic moment was the Sbadoclar: the village youth proudly embraced this ancient bell-ringing custom, picking up the mantle from previous generations and keeping a precious tradition alive for a small mountain community at over 1,000 meters above sea level.
