Fête de Notre-Dame de la Visitation à Viévola

At the entrance to the mass, the faithful can make a donation and in return they will receive a pin decorated with blue, pink or white ribbons and an effigy of the Virgin. The donations are used to finance the preparations for the feast.
After the mass, a procession sets off behind the statue of the Virgin.
At the end of the procession, local elected officials speak and an aperitif is offered to the participants, to the sound of songs sung by a musical group.
In the afternoon, a rosary is recited in the chapel. Otherwise, musicians from Tende and Piedmont, on the other side of the Col de Tende, entertain the participants in the late afternoon with waltzes, courentes and ballets until dinner. The organisers, their families and the musicians have dinner together.
After dinner, the ball is held to close the day.
