In 231 days Patron saint festival
15 June 2027
Tuesday 15 June
Positano has two patrons and two dates: Saint Vitus on 15 June, when the season has just begun, and the Assumption on 15 August, when the town is at its fullest.
Positano has two patrons, two months apart: Saint Vitus on 15 June and the Virgin of the Assumption on 15 August.
They are very different feasts, not in the liturgical calendar but in the town itself: in June the season has barely begun, while at Ferragosto Positano is at its fullest.
