Spain’s fun-loving reputation precedes it across the globe, and the most popular Spanish festivals are no different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whether you’re up for throwing tomatoes at complete strangers or taking a midnight dip in the ocean to welcome summer, there’s a Spanish fiesta you’ll love. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’d be willing to bet there’s a celebration happening somewhere in Spain nearly every day of the year. Even the tiniest, most remote villages have their local festivities that they proudly celebrate when the time rolls around.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there are a handful of popular Spanish festivals that draw thousands of curious travelers from around the world\u2014in addition to plenty of locals. Here are the Spanish fiestas that have gained fame across the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

1. Feria de Abril (Seville)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Feria de Abril<\/i> (April Fair) is the most important week on the calendar down in sunny Seville. Locals and visitors alike eat fried fish, drink rebujito<\/em> (a refreshing yet potent blend of 7Up and dry sherry), and dance sevillanas<\/em>\u2014all while donning colorful flamenco dresses, traditional riding outfits, and smart suits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All the action takes place at the real de la feria <\/i>(fairgrounds), where you\u2019ll find over 1,000 casetas.<\/i> These canvas tents are put up by businesses, groups of friends, clubs, affluent local families, or political parties, and are the beating heart of feria<\/em> life. Most are invitation-only, but there are a handful of public casetas<\/em> where all are welcome. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within the walls of a caseta<\/i>, you can expect drinks to be flowing, delicious tapas being served, and people dancing to sevillanas<\/i>, the official folk music of the city. Further afield, you’ll find the ominously dubbed calle del infierno<\/em> (“hell street”), or amusement park area filled with rides, carnival games, and food stands. (Its odd-sounding nickname is a tongue-in-cheek reference to how loud it can get here!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. La Diada de Sant Jordi<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let’s swing up north to Catalonia, where the most romantic day of the year isn’t in February\u2014it’s on April 23! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Feast of St. George, or La Diada de Sant Jordi<\/em> in Catalan, celebrates the region’s patron saint. It’s a day of love and romance when friends and lovers exchange books and roses. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Traditionally, men bought roses for women and women bought books for men. However, times have changed and gender no longer dictates who gets what. Stalls selling both of the above, often decorated with red- and yellow-striped Catalan flag motifs, are everywhere to be found throughout Catalonia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Fiesta de San Isidro<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

May 15 marks one of the most popular Spanish festivals for those residing in Madrid<\/a> as the city celebrates its patron saint\u2019s feast day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the Fiesta de San Isidro <\/i>(Festival of St. Isidore), Madrid celebrates with concerts, fireworks and other special events. The festival originally began as a religious holiday, and many madrile\u00f1os<\/em> still celebrate the festival with a religious pilgrimage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pilgrimage finishes at the pradera de San Isidro <\/i>(St. Isidore\u2019s Meadow), where people can picnic on the grassy lawns or chow down on bites purchased from vendors set up specifically for the event. There’s one constant on the food scene, though: rosquillas<\/i>, the sweet donut-like treats typically associated with this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. La Noche de San Juan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To welcome the summer, coastal cities all over Spain celebrate La Noche de San Juan<\/i> (St. John’s Eve) on June 23. As one of the most popular Spanish festivals, it takes place on the summer solstice\u2014the longest day of the year and a period of time many believe to be magical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On La Noche de San Juan<\/i>, revelers come together around bonfires and partake in a whole host of superstitious activities: jumping over bonfires, burning a piece of paper with a lover\u2019s name, or burning something personal to cleanse their spirit. Once the clock strikes midnight, many will also go for a swim in the ocean\u2014said to purify body and soul. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Celebrations take place in many Spanish cities, but the biggest parties are\u00a0held in coastal cities like Alicante, Barcelona, and Almer\u00eda, with Madrid<\/a> also putting on a respectable show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Fiesta de San Ferm\u00edn<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Fiesta de San Ferm\u00edn<\/i> (St. Fermin festival) takes place in the city of Pamplona and honors the regional co-patron saint. Often referred to as the “running of the bulls,” Ernest Hemingway put this popular Spanish festival on the map in his classic novel The Sun Also Rises<\/i>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though there are numerous events during the festivities, it is the running of the bulls that has gained worldwide fame. It occurs every morning during the weeklong festival and consists of hundreds of brave participants trying to outrun six bulls which have been trained for bullfighting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thinking of doing the run? Think again! Throughout its history, 15 people have died and hundreds have been wounded during the event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. La Tomatina<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The small Valencian town of Bu\u00f1ol is quiet\u2014until the last Wednesday of August rolls around. It’s Tomatina<\/em> time! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dubbed the \u201cWorld’s Biggest Food Fight,\u201d La Tomatina <\/i>is a fun festival that encourages participants to throw tomatoes at each other. Though no one knows for sure, there are various theories as to how this messy tradition started. Some say it began as a class war; others say it began when townspeople started angrily throwing tomatoes at local politicians.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is clear however, is that the event attracts tens of thousands of people from all over the world. In previous years attendance was as high as 50,000, but due to safety concerns it is now limited to \u201conly\u201d 20,000 participants!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Popular Spanish Festivals FAQs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
What is a Spanish fiesta?<\/strong>

Fiesta<\/em> is the Spanish word for “party!” Here in Spain, official holidays are often designated as a fiesta<\/em> or festivo<\/em>, so keep an eye out for those words on the calendar.<\/p> <\/div>

How many fiestas are there in Spain?<\/strong>

Spain’s official tourism board estimates<\/a> that around 250 recognized festivals take place in the country every year. There’s always something going on!<\/p> <\/div>

Do the Spanish celebrate Christmas?<\/strong>

Yes! As an overwhelmingly Catholic country, Spain does recognize and celebrate Christmas. One major difference from other cultures, though, is the fact that children traditionally receive gifts on Three Kings Day (January 6), rather than on Christmas Day itself.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n
