Saint Agrippina

To Live

Saint Agrippina Festival

Each summer in Boston’s North End, 20 men of the Saint Agrippina Benefit Society carry a a 2,000-pond statue and canopy in a procession through the historic Italian neighborhood. The festival is a weekend-long event with food, music and midway games. Above fireworks spell out the word “VIVA” (to live) at the end of the procession of Saint Agrippina. 

With Style
