Edition 2025 — San Cono Festival

The 2025 edition of the San Cono Festival once again combined a deep religious dimension with major musical events. The heart of the festivities was the solemn procession on September 1st towards the Bazia district, preceded by the eve pilgrimage and the translation of the relics. Two well-known names in Italian music, Silvia Salemi and Ron, performed in Piazza Roma, while fireworks sealed the final night.

The 2025 San Cono Festival

In 2025, Naso celebrated its patron saint, Abbot Saint Cono, with the usual program of faith and entertainment, organized by the Municipality and the Parish. The Nebrodi town experienced its peak days between the solemn procession on September 1st towards the Bazia district and the rites of the Octave.

On the musical front, Piazza Roma hosted two highly anticipated concerts: on August 30th, Silvia Salemi performed, while the evening of September 1st featured Ron (Rosalino Cellamare), who closed the festivities, followed by fireworks at midnight. Both concerts, with free admission, began around 9:30 PM.

To facilitate visitor access, the Municipality of Naso provided free shuttle buses on August 30th, 31st, and September 1st, confirming the festival as one of the main summer events in the Messina hinterland.
