Edition 2025 โ€” Saint George Feast

In 2025, as the liturgical date of April 23rd coincided with the Easter period, the Saint George the Martyr Patronal Feast was moved to Saturday, May 3rd, and Sunday, May 4th. Two days of intense devotion and popular celebration in San Giorgio Ionico, culminating in the procession of the statue, the solemn Mass in Piazza San Giorgio, and an evening of brass band concerts and a fireworks display.

The 2025 edition of the Patronal Feast took place on May 3rd and 4th, exceptionally shifted from the usual April 23rd date due to its proximity to Easter. On Sunday, May 4th, Holy Masses were held at 7:00, 9:30, and 11:00 AM; at 4:30 PM, the procession of the statue of Saint George toured the town streets, and at 6:00 PM, in Piazza San Giorgio, the solemn Mass was presided over by Monsignor Giuseppe Russo, Bishop of Altamura, Gravina, and Acquaviva delle Fonti. In the evening, at 8:30 PM, the concert by the great musical band Nino Farรฌ โ€“ Cittร  di Lecce; at 9:00 PM on Via Diaz, the performance by the Justx Band and, in the panoramic area of Via Moscatelli, the fireworks display concluded the festivities.
