Festa della Madonna del Tindari
Piazza Dante, Oliveri
The community of Oliveri celebrates the Madonna del Tindari with two processions that, on the weekend of August 22 and 23, unite the two main churches of the town. On Saturday evening, after the recitation of the rosary and mass at the Church of the Nativity in contrada Gelsi, the statue of the Virgin is carried on the shoulders of the faithful along a route through the center to the Church of St. Joseph in Piazza Dante. On Sunday, the procession goes in the opposite direction: from the church in Piazza Dante, the statue returns to the Nativity, accompanied by songs and prayers. A deeply felt appointment that renews Marian devotion every year and strengthens the bond between the different areas of the territory.
