Buon Ferragosto a tutti !

Ferragosto is a public holiday celebrated on 15 August in all of Italy. It originates from Feriae Augusti, the festival of emperor Augustus, who made the 1st of August a day of rest after weeks of hard work on the agricultural sector.

For Catholics, it's the day to celebrate the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.

Ferragosto in Italy marks a break from work, an opportunity to spend time with family and friends.

Enjoy the sights and sounds of my grandfather’s home town of Agerola as they greet the dawn on Ferragosto ….

On this very day, in 1946, the Italian people went to the polls. For the first time after 20 years of Fascism, after World War II had largely destroyed the country, the Italian people had an important choice to make: “Monarchia” or “Repubblica”? Women were also allowed to vote, for the first time in Italian history, and so they did.

Credit is usually given to Alcide De Gasperi for the remarkably consequential decision to call the entire population to a vote on such a huge and controversial issue. The choice was “Repubblica” by a close margin, and King Umberto II went into exile.

It's an Italian bank holiday (festa nazionale) and cities nationwide celebrate with parades, flying the "tricolore" and in Rome the "Frecce Tricolori" perform a flyover the city. Be sure to wish all your Italian family and friends, "Buona Festa della Repubblica!" 🇮🇹
