“Burning” the Bell Tower

Don’t miss the Caorle Bell Tower Fire! A stunning show of lights and sounds that blends village tradition with the charm of the bell tower.

When: 12th and 13th July 2025


Every year, on the second Saturday and second Sunday of the month of July, the Procession of the Virgin of the Angel takes place and covers the historic town centre on foot (not to be confused with the Sea Procession taking place every five years in September). At the end, in Piazza Vescovado, there is the so-called Burning of the Bell Tower, a highly suggestive lights festival.

It is an ancient seafaring tradition and is perhaps one of the most heartfelt summer events in Caorle. The burning of the bell tower is an ancient rite that is lost in the mists of time and takes place in the middle of the season and in the heat. These are dates to be highlighted in the calendar, since they constitute the highest point of religiosity in the Municipality of Caorle, in which all the faithful of Caorle, tourists and also people who belong to other religions participate.
