A socio-cultural and religious event that transformed the neighborhood into a stage for faith, culture, and solidarity, with great participation from citizens, associations, and schools.

The first edition (2025)

The festival was born on Friday, January 31, 2025, starting at 6:45 PM, transforming the historic Piazza Don Innocenzo Bonomo and the area around the Santa Maria della Salette Church into a space dedicated to devotion for Saint Agatha. The initiative, strongly desired in the San Cristoforo district, involved citizens, associations, and local schools.

Among the most significant moments were the screening of the video "Agathea", dedicated to the martyrdom of Saint Agatha, and the performance of the wind orchestra and choir of the Angelo Musco music high school. With the first edition, the neighborhood experienced a moment of extraordinary participation and redemption, becoming a symbol of hope and rebirth and laying the foundations for a new city tradition.
