These observed dates are Italian National Bank Holidays where everything is closed.   Each Abruzzo town/city is in addition likely to have a holiday/feast day on their particular Saint Day, for example in Bascianella, this is June 29th which is Saint Peter’s Day.  A lot of these ‘feast days’ luckily coincide with the month of August!
