Edition 2025 — Saint Anthony Abbot in Galfione

In 2025, the Galfione hamlet of Occhieppo Superiore once again celebrated its patron saint, Saint Anthony Abbot, in mid-January, renewing the tradition of the patronal feast: Holy Masses in the parish church, the customary spiritual concert of sacred and early music, and a convivial gathering offered to the community in the oratory.

The 2025 edition of the Saint Anthony Abbot Festival in Galfione upheld the formula that has characterized the patronal feast of this hamlet in Occhieppo Superiore, in the province of Biella, for years.

As per tradition, the celebrations focused on the saint's feast day, with Holy Masses in the historic parish church, a spiritual concert dedicated to sacred and Baroque music, and a convivial aperitif in the oratory, open to all residents and visitors. An event that brings the Elvo Valley community together around its patron every winter.
