The rite has been completed . At 8.15 pm today the exchange of the flag of the San Salvatore committee took place.

The new president, Gianluca Loi, 44 years old, a worker from Tortolì, received the flag from the outgoing Franco Cocco .

The procession, enlivened by the accordion of Ignazio Lepori and punctuated by the traditional shots of is cuettus, wound its way towards the San Michele neighborhood where Loi's home is located. He was welcomed on the doorstep by his wife Chiara with a long embrace full of emotion.

There was no shortage of tears , for a moment particularly felt by the members of the committee .

Today's event was the final act of Festas de sartu , an event that is exclusive to Sardinia due to its rituals.
