On the occasion of the feast of San Magno in Gradoli there are two other special events, 'Alla mensa degli Incappucciati' and 'Sagra del Fagiolo Purgatorio'.
According to the religious tradition, those taking part in the Mass celebrated in the Church of San Magno can obtain the 'forgiveness of San Magno', ie the plenary indulgence granted by Pope Benedict XIV in 1774.
Alongside the religious celebrations, there is the food and wine event "Alla mensa degli Incappucciati" at the Priory Gardens organized by the Fratellanza del Purgatorio di Gradoli, a company that has been operating since the 16th century and organizes the famous' Purgatory Lunch on Wednesday ashes.
This is also an opportunity to introduce the famous Purgatory bean, the Aleatico wine of Gradoli and other local delights such as purgatory bean soup, pappardelle with wild boar, grilled sausages, stewed snails and roasted whitefish of the lake.
The music is then the frame of the evenings with shows and dances.
