(Adnkronos) - "Dal 23 al 30 di agosto vi aspettiamo a L'Aquila per la 729esima edizione della Perdonanza Celestiniana. Un rito che si ripete da secoli e che nasce dalla Bolla che Papa Celestino V, nel 1294, volle regalare alla città e con cui si stabiliva che chiunque, pentito e confessato, fosse entrato dentro la Basilica di Santa Maria di Collemaggio, avrebbe avuto rimessi tutti i peccati". Così, in un video per l'Adnkronos, il sindaco dell'Aquila Pierluigi Biondi, presenta la nuova edizione della Perdonanza, evento storico-religioso che si tiene annualmente all'Aquila tra il 23 e il 30 agosto.

00:00 From the 23rd to the 30th of August we are waiting for you at the Aquila for the 729th edition of the Celestinian Forgiveness,
00:08 a rite that has been repeated for centuries and that was born from the bubble that Pope Celestino V wanted to give to the city in 1294,
00:18 and with which it was established that anyone who, repentant and confessed, had entered the Basilica of Santa Maria di Colle Maggio
00:25 would have repented all his sins. This is in fact the first anniversary of the history,
00:30 which anticipates the 6 years of Pope Boniface VIII's 1300.
00:35 This week we will naturally have all the most important appointments from the spiritual point of view,
00:42 on August 28th with the opening of the Holy Gate and the subsequent closing on the eve of August 29th,
00:49 also on the eve of the Jubilee year, donated to us by Pope Francis on the occasion of his coming to Aquila last year
00:58 and the historical opening event of the Holy Gate of 2022.
01:04 Along with the religious aspect, there will be the secular one, with the 23rd, the firelighting,
01:12 the great opening event dedicated to reconciliation between peoples, the concert of Ennegramaro on the 26th,
01:19 the closing concert of the manifestations on the 30th with Gianni Morandi,
01:24 and in the middle we will have a dance gala, a show by Teoteocoli.
01:28 Aquila will play with the city, which will be filled with artistic performances.
01:33 In short, a week all to live in a city that once again tells,
01:40 this year also in Italy and around the world, its reconquered beauty.
