Finale Ligure · Savona · Liguria
On 24 June Finale Ligure celebrates the Baptist, titular of its collegiate church. At the end of May the town has another feast all its own: the Festival of Restlessness.
The patron of Finale Ligure is Saint John the Baptist, celebrated on 24 June, and the collegiate church is dedicated to him.
The town's calendar also holds a feast found nowhere else: the Festa dell'Inquietudine, the Festival of Restlessness, at the end of May, devised in 1996 by the Circolo degli Inquieti, which each year names a Restless One of the Year, honouring a person for who they are.
