In the early afternoon of January 16, the Faresi (people from Fara) transport the farchie (bundles) from their district to the square in front of the church of S. Antonio Abate, they raise them and set them on fire. The transport takes place by means of tractors or the farchia is transported "on the shoulder" by the people of the Contrada (neighborhood).
In some neighborhoods the custom prevails that the parades before starting the journey recite the litanies of the Lauretians.
