Every year in the parish of S. M. Assunta in Rocca Canterano the recurrence of the Quarantore takes place, a sacred event with ancient origins which has been celebrated for generations in conjunction with the Sunday preceding "the Ashes". The members of the various brotherhoods of the village wear their own uniform on the day of the festivities to symbolize their devotion to the SS. Sacramento, and participate in the procession through the streets of the town.
At the end of the solemn event, the participants gather for the "Quarantore Lunch", a banquet based on some of the most characteristic typical products of Rocca Canterano.
