Edition 2025 — Tataratà Festival

The 358th edition of the Santa Croce Festival - Tataratà Festival took place in Casteltermini on May 23, 24, and 25, 2025, in its usual slot around the fourth Sunday of May. Three days of tradition with the entry of the five guilds, solemn relic processions, the Real Maestranza horse parade, and performances by the Tataratà group along Corso Umberto and in Piazza Duomo.

The 358th edition of the Santa Croce Festival - Tataratà Festival was held in Casteltermini, in the province of Agrigento, on May 23, 24, and 25, 2025. The event renewed the centuries-old ritual celebrating the discovery of the Cross, blending the religious dimension with the town's identity-based folklore.

Friday opened with the entry of the five guilds — Celibi, Pecorai, Borgesi, Real Maestranza, and Vurdunara — accompanied by the "Principi Termini e Ferreri" Historical Pageant and the Tataratà group, followed by the relic procession with a blessing in Piazza Duomo. On Saturday and Sunday, the Real Maestranza paraded on horseback while the Tataratà group presented its performances along Corso Umberto and in Piazza Duomo, in front of a large crowd.
