Patron saint festival In 243 days
Saint Calogerus and the 1,800-kilogram float
📅 Every year, on 17 and 18 June
Petralia Sottana celebrates Saint Calogerus on 17 and 18 June, after a week of preparation known as the settina; the saint's heavy float, weighing 1,800 kilograms, is carried up the town's steep streets without the confraternities, because it is a feast of the people.
