E' Luminere
The Immaculate Conception Eve in San Pietro in Guarano.
Multiple events
Regione Calabria
On 7 December 2024, San Pietro in Guarano will renew a centuries-old tradition that has its roots in the second half of the 17th century: E' Luminere. This evocative event transforms the old town into a sea of lights, thanks to the ‘luminere’, handcrafted torches made from bearded yew branches, rags and waste oil, lit by the large central bonfire in the main square. This bonfire, symbolising the invocation of the Holy Spirit, will burn throughout the night, creating a unique atmosphere steeped in spirituality.
A guide will be available for visitors who will accompany them to discover the beauty of the historic centre, enriching the evening with a journey into the past and the traditions of San Pietro in Guarano.
