One of the most interesting Sicilian Easter festivals, the so called “Diavolata” beginning the palm Sunday and ending on Easter Sunday. In front of the main church the devils and the death meet the Humanity with the archangel Gabriel. In the end the angels will join the Virgin Mary with the resurrected Jesus.
Grandiose celebrations in honor of Saint Agatha, Catania’s patron saint, with a spectacular Candlemas procession; an all out three days street celebration, worship, devotion, folklore and traditions.
