San Rocco Festival

The 2025 San Rocco Festival took place in Candela during the middle days of August, with the most intense devotional moment centered on the procession of the patron saint on the evening of August 17. Illuminations and stalls accompanied the festivities throughout the historic center.

On the musical front, Piazza Plebiscito hosted the highlight evenings of the program: on August 17, a concert by O.R.O., a historic Italian music band, and on August 18, a performance by Andrea Sannino. These events were part of the broader "Candela Summer 2025" schedule promoted by the municipal administration, which offered food festivals, exhibitions, and entertainment shows throughout the town during the same period.
