Relax and Culture
during the Spring
Fire Week

On March 19th, on the day dedicated to San Giuseppe (the Italian father’s day), Itri is lighted by a big propitiatory fire which welcomes the spring. This is a traditional feast of the countryside world whose origins can be found in the pagan world. The organization of this event starts the week before and involves every citizen and civil organization. People drink and eat by the fires all night long and they dance popular music. During last years, the quality of the popular music played increased, therefore the confluence of people increased as well. During March 2011 visitors were more than 10,000.
