January:

On January 17th many communities celebrate the festivity of Sant’Antonio Abate. Already on the eve of the party, huge log fires get inflamed which should, if possible, consist of aromatic woods.  more...

February:

February is the month of carnival. Everywhere in Sardinia people are celebrating, but this is very different depending on the region. In Paulilatino, Abbasanta and Oristano, impressive horseman games are arranged, in which every rider has to spear a ring with a lance during tantivy.  more...

March/April:

Like everywhere in southern Europe, Easter is the greatest religious festivity of the year. There is hardly a community, where there is no procession during the Holy Week. The probably most impressive event during Easter is the procession on Easter Monday called “Lunissanti” in Castelsardo.  more...

May:

This month has to juggle 150 festivities – in only 31 days. May starts directly with the biggest party of the island, Sagra de Snat’Efiso, which is being celebrated from May 1th to May 4th.  more...

June:

At the first Sunday in June, the festival of holy Katharina, numerous native costumes and oxcarts showing the picture of the saint dominate the shape of the city in Sardinia.  more...

July:

This month starts with a wild horseman festival in Sedilo on July 6th and 7th. Wherever applicable, people come to this place to witness the “Adria” and to get fascinated by the rampant masses of riders.  more...

Titel dieser Seite: Sardinia – Island of a thousand festivities
Zusammenfassung dieser Seite: The claim, there was always a party somewhere in the 365 communities of Sardinia, is by no means overdone. Indeed, local festivities accumulate mainly between May and September, but also at Easter or carnival people like to amuse themselves copiously.
