Edition 2025 — Sant'Eligio

In 2025, the Sant'Eligio Festival once again gathered the community of Chiusa di Pesio around its patron saint, with traditional rites managed by the Compagnia di Sant'Eligio: the floral tribute at the cemetery, the Flag Exchange in Piazza Cavour, the parish Holy Mass, and the awaited blessing of vehicles, followed by the usual convivial moments that attract participants from outside the town every year.

The 2025 edition of the Sant'Eligio Festival renewed the long devotional tradition in Chiusa di Pesio, in the province of Cuneo, dedicated to the patron saint of farriers, haulers, and mechanics. As every year, the Compagnia di Sant'Eligio marked the days with a mix of reflection and celebration: the tribute to the deceased members of the Compagnia, the characteristic Flag Exchange in Piazza Cavour, the religious celebration in the Parish Church, and the blessing of vehicles, the authentic popular heart of the event. To complete the program, the lunches and convivial evenings that have always distinguished this festival, which is deeply felt throughout the Pesio Valley.
