Celebrations
Sant'Osvaldo
Cerro people used to celebrate their saint protector, Saint Oswald, every 5 August with a religious ceremony in the main church. In addition, the celebration lasts a pair of days with local food stands (in particular typical salami and cheese) and popular fairs.
Fragolosa
Also known as Festa della fragola (Strawberry festival), it's the most important event concerning a typical fruit of the zone, strawberry (in Italian fragola). It's the most awaited celebration after Giocondo's death. Fragolosa is mainly celebrated on the second weekend of July and it's one week long. A lot of stands are exposed, especially in the Piazza Alferia, the largest square of the town.
