Our patron saint: Santo Stefano.

In Cascine di Buti at the end of june, people celebrate Santo Stefano. Santo Stefano is the patron Saint of Cascine di Buti. The celebration starts in the evening and finishes during the night. The celebration takes place in the car park behind the "Misericordia"
In this day a lot of people play with other people in the different games for example  "the fortune wheel" or "treasure hunt".
They come from other towns to celebrate this day and to speak with friends and relatives. I love going to the celebration because there are my friends or other people that I know. During the celebrations people do performances such a singing, dancing or speaking about politics or telling jokes. At midnight there is a fireworks display. Every year fireworks are beautiful and spectacular and to see them is amazing. I love to celebrate Santo Stefano because he was important for my town and because he is important for the people who believe in him.

This is our patron Saint, it is important for our population.
