Italy marks St Francis of Assisi Day as national holiday

Original: Hoy, 4 de Octubre, Italia celebra la Festa di San Francesco d'Assisi ("Día de San Francisco de Asís") . Discurso de Gior

Italy celebrates the Feast of St Francis of Assisi on 4 October, a date that returned to the national holiday calendar in 2025 after nearly half a century. Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni delivered a speech marking the re-introduction of the feast, which honours the patron saint of Italy and animals. The reinstatement of the date is drawing wide attention across the country.

Why now: The feast day has been reinstated as an official national holiday for the first time in nearly 50 years, with Meloni's speech drawing attention.
