The patrons of Pratola Serra are Our Lady of Sorrows and Saint Gerard, celebrated on the first Sunday of September.
On Easter Monday, before the procession in devotion to the Madonna di Montevergine and the Risen Christ, the Calata degli Angeli is held: three children, dressed as angels, are suspended on a wooden support held taut above the crowd. On 13 December, during the procession dedicated to Saint Lucy, bonfires are lit along the town's streets. The town also holds a dolmen.
