The patroness of Francofonte is Our Lady of the Snow, celebrated on 5 August: the feast dedicated to her is the most important religious event of the year and includes solemn liturgical celebrations, the procession of the patroness's statue through the town's streets, and civic events.
Among the town's other observances, the feast of Saint Joseph stands out, celebrated on 19 March with the traditional procession of the Holy Family, and the Holy Week celebrations, with the rites of the Easter Triduum. Francofonte still preserves traces of its feudal past in the Castello di Chadra and the Castello di Gadera, as well as in the Palazzo Gravina-Cruyllas.
