On 25 November, the patron saint's day of Santa Caterina d’Alessandria, martyr and symbol of wisdom and virtue, patron saint of students, philosophers and seamstresses, is celebrated. It is an event of profound devotion that attracts the faithful and citizens every year, united by a strong spiritual bond and identity with the saint.

The celebration, preceded by the traditional 'tredicina' (thirteen days of prayer), culminates in a liturgical celebration with the participation of the confraternities, a procession and the display of the precious relic kept by the Confraternity: a tooth of the Saint, a sign of faith and shared memory.

The day will be accompanied by music, community events and evening shows, in an atmosphere of spirituality and participation that strengthens the bond between citizens and their patron saint every year.
