During the Holy Week, there are numerous imposing processions that celebrate the Easter rite. You can admire the magnificent local folk costumes of the participants. Dorgali’s most important festivals are known as “festas de pandela” (Feast of the Banner), as a banner of the feasted saint is safekept by the family of the “prior” or “master of the guild”, who will have to organize the feast in the following year.
These feasts take place in the fields and all the participants are asked to lunch, which is based on the typical gastronomic specialities of the Sardinian country cuisine. Among the most important festivals are : Madonna di Buoncammino on the Saturday between May 15th and 22nd and Su Babbu Mannu the day before Pentecost.
