This celebration is dedicated to the Patron Saint Cesario, from which the town took the name. Saint Cesario is celebrated the fourth Sunday of July, to honour the arrival in the town of remains of the African Saint in ancient times.
During this celebration the solemn service is celebrated and the marching band can be heard in the entire town, under the light of the “luminarie” decoration. To this celebration, other two festivities were celebrated during the year to honour the Saint.
La prima, detta “San Cesario del Sindaco” si svolge il 7 novembre e coincide con la festa liturgica del santo patrono. La seconda, ormai caduta in disuso, era chiamata dai fedeli “San Cesario te le tritici focare” (San Cesario dei tredici falò), e si svolgeva a febbraio.
