The feast of Sant'Efisio is one of the visiting cards of Sardinia, a religious and folklore celebration deeply felt by the citizens and a unique event in the world capable of uniting the island around the city of Cagliari, where this cult finds its beating heart from hundreds of years.
The celebrations for the holy warrior martyr, who saved the capital from the great epidemic that struck all of Europe in the 17th century, occur twice a year: the first, in January, the second, in these very days, from the 1st to May 4th, and guarantee continuous emotion, full of moments of sharing, relationship and prayer.
A great celebration that unites people of all ages, citizens and tourists, and which culminates in the solemn procession to Nora, in memory of the dissolution of the vow that Cagliari dedicated to the Saint to free him from the plague, in 1656.
After 368 editions, for the 2024 edition the Gallerie Sardegna Shopping Centers - Olbia Mare in Olbia, I Fenicotteri in Cagliari and Porte di Sassari in Sassari - managed by Nhood strongly wanted to join this anniversary to reiterate their attention and care for People, the Territories and their Culture.
For example, the I Fenicotteri Santa Gilla Shopping Center in Cagliari will be open regularly on May 1st and thereafter, offering relaxation spaces, a rich offer of shops and restaurant services to the numerous tourists, visitors and citizens expected in Cagliari.
Nadia Mombelli, Shopping Center Manager of the shopping centers managed by Nhood in Sardinia : “ The Feast of Sant'Efisio is an unmissable event for those who want to live the authenticity of an experience in Sardinia and we too, in our Galleria Sardegna Shopping Centres, we want to make a tangible contribution to the celebrations by opening our spaces not only to leisure, shopping and dining opportunities, but also to confirm, once again, that we are close to the People, the Territories and their Culture, a precious heritage to be valorised, to ensure that it remains alive, known and loved throughout the world ”.
