Edition 2025 — Scoppio del Carro of Rufina

The 2025 edition of the Scoppio del Carro of Rufina was held on Saturday, April 19, Holy Saturday, in Piazza Umberto I, in front of the Church of San Martino. The evening featured the Historical Wine and Countryside Procession of Rufina, followed by the ritual of the dove and the pyrotechnic spectacle of the cart on Easter night.

In the 2025 edition, on Saturday, April 19, the Scoppio del Carro of Rufina renewed the Holy Saturday tradition in Piazza Umberto I. For the occasion, the Historical Wine and Countryside Procession of Rufina paraded through the streets adjacent to the square starting at 9:45 PM, reaching the Church of San Martino. The ritual of the colombina - the dove-shaped rocket that travels along the wire from the bell tower to the cart - triggered, at the singing of the Gloria, the explosion of the cart, with fireworks illuminating the square between approximately 11:00 PM and 11:15 PM.
