Edition 2025 — Saint Joseph Festival

In 2025, Raddusa celebrated its patron saint, Saint Joseph, with the usual double appointment: March 19th with votive altars and tables offered to the needy, and September 19th with the main patronal feast. The evening statue procession, accompanied by the band, passed through the town streets until returning to the church, followed by fireworks. The fair on Via Regina Margherita and musical performances in Piazza Umberto I were also highlights.

The 2025 edition of the Saint Joseph Festival in Raddusa followed the established tradition. On March 19th, the town's homes set up votive altars, featuring the ritual banquet dedicated to the Holy Family and the distribution of food to the needy. On September 19th, the main patronal feast, linked to thanksgiving for the grain harvest, featured Holy Masses in the Church of the Immaculate Conception and the solemn procession of the statue at nightfall, accompanied by the marching band. The day concluded with the fair on Via Regina Margherita, musical entertainment in Piazza Umberto I, and fireworks, marking a devotion that in Raddusa unites faith, community, and peasant culture.
