The touching procession of Good Friday in Campobasso
The procession of Good Friday in Campobasso is incredibly touching. Not even the non-believers can resist the emotion of the chorus of 700 cantors. An unforgettable experience. Not to be missed.

The procession, dedicated to San Basso, patron saint of Termoli, is very suggestive as it takes place at sea. On 3 and 4 August each year the statue of San Basso is carried in procession from the Cathedral and, through the old town, to the sea.
It is the most awaited feast of Campobasso and one of the most original processions in Molise and in Italy: the ‘Mysteries’, sacred representations that parade on the Corpus Christi day. The devil and the damsel are certainly the most suggestive characters. Will the damsel be able to resist the devil's temptations?
Campobasso is getting ready for the “Mysteries" 2019, the traditional procession of Campobasso which will take place the next June 23.
On 23th of April the city of Campobasso celebrates its patron saint, San Giorgio. At 5.00 pm the Mass will be held at the Church of San Giorgio and the procession will follow in the historic center and along the main streets of the city.
