The patron of Zollino is Saint Anthony of Padua; the feast days listed for the municipality include 13 June and 23 August, and the patronal feast is celebrated on 22 and 23 August. The date of the celebrations recalls 1898, when the faithful decided to carry the saint's statue in procession to calm the hurricane that was devastating the town: for this reason the inhabitants also call the feast sant'Antonio dellu maletiempu.
The town's calendar includes the Fiera di San Giovanni (23-24 June), held since 1910 in the alleys of the old town, the Scèblasti sagra (2-3 August), born in 1996 to promote the dishes of Zollino's popular tradition, and the Festa de lu focu (28 December), with the great focara kept burning all night.
