    La "Fiera di Catania" or "A Fera o' Luni" (whose meaning in English is "the Monday's Fair").

    The name "Fera o' Luni", in Italian "La Fiera del Lunedì", was due to its hebdomadal preparation that in ancient times held only once a week, on Mondays. Nowadays it trades throughout the week instead.It is situated in the surroundings of Piazza Stesicoro, in Piazza Carlo Alberto, popularly famed as Piazza del Carmine because of the presence of an historical Carmelite Sanctuary.
