Saint Biagio Feast
Saint Biagio Feast is held on February 3rd. On this occasion the people of Cesi, repeating an ancient custom, go to the church of St. Biagio where they bless the candles and holy oil and have a snack.
The popular saying “A San Biagio de li tozzi, a me m’aiuti a te te strozzi” (Give St. Biagio chunks, it helps me but chokes you) recalls that St. Biagio was the protector of the throat.
