Comitato Tricolore Italiani nel Mondo will host its seventh annual Festa della Repubblica on June 5 at the Shrine of Our Lady of Pompeii in Chicago.

Festivities will begin with a Mass at the Shrine at 11 a.m. followed by a parade to Garibaldi Park for a wreath-laying ceremony with the Consulate General of Italy.
