In this event is celebrated the Patron Saint of Lecce and two co-patrons: Saint Oronzo; Saint Giusto and Saint Fortunato. In a meeting of lights and colours, secular traditions are brought back to life every year.
For three days – 24th, 25th and 26th of August – the city is framed from very peculiar decorative light constructions (luminarie) and both civil and religious rituals take place. The peak of the pathos is the religious procession, when the statues of the Saints are taken through the historical centre.
On one hand, hundreds of stands are placed between the Carlo V castle and Sant’Oronzo square, selling food for every taste. On the other hand, the Duomo cathedral is the crucial point for the religious rituals. In the suburbs of the city, it is placed a luna park and it is possible to admire the fireworks on the last night of celebration.
