For almost a century, the Feast of Saint Anthony has brought the Bemerside community together in celebration, faith and friendship. On Sunday, 14th June, locals gathered around St Anthony’s Chapel for the 99th annual celebration of a much-loved tradition that continues to connect generations.
Families and friends enjoyed a day filled with laughter, great food and community spirit, with barbecues, cannolis, raffles, live music and plenty of entertainment for all ages.
As the milestone 100th celebration approaches in 2027, preparations are already underway to honour the history and legacy of this special community event.
On Sunday 14th of June the community gathered on the grounds around the St Anthony’s Chapel in Bemerside parish to enjoy the 99th celebration of the Feast of Saint Anthony.
The community enjoyed raffles, a sizzling barbeque and golden fish and chips. Children bounced on the jumping castle and everyone tucked into a scrumptious cannoli or two.
Next year will be the centenary celebration and there are already plans in the works to make 2027’s Feast of Saint Anthony bigger than ever before.
