Cantalice. Feast of Saint Felix

Cantalice. Feast of Saint Felix

On May 18 Cantalice celebrates its patron Saint Felix and the statue of the saint, dressed in the typical dress of the Capuchins, is carried in procession with solemn liturgies and concerts, performed by the band "City of Cantalice".

These celebrations involve the five fraternities in the town, those of St. Anthony, of Mercy, of San Felice, the Madonna delle Grazie and Company of the Good Death.

Each is preceded by its prior and they go together through the streets of the town showing the typical costumes of long robes and caps with white-blue stripes, black-brown and red cardinal.
