Santa Eulàlia Festival
The Festes de Santa Eulàlia, Barcelona's main winter celebrations, are designed for the whole family. During these magical days, homage is paid to the brave Laia, the little girl who rose up to defend her ideals. Laia has become a symbol for the city, representing solidarity, the defence of justice and the commitment of young people. Saint Eulalia and Our Lady of Mercy are the co-patron saints of Barcelona. To commemorate these festivities, numerous activities are organised for the whole family. Don't miss the giants, the parades, the ‘correfocs’, the performances of the “castellers”, the sardanes, the meeting of the ‘puntaires’ and the city's musical bands that will perform along different routes, as well as other activities for young and old alike.
