Avignon is filled with celebration, color and excitement for its eagerly awaited Festa Major!

For four days packed with activities, the town transforms into a vibrant stage where folk culture, music, and the joy of sharing take center stage. Giants, stick dancers, fire runs, concerts, and shows for all ages ensure that no one stays home. This celebration is a unique opportunity to enjoy tradition and fun in a festive atmosphere.

Local creativity shines brightly with fun initiatives like the legendary junk-carrying race and the paella competition, two classics that demonstrate that in Avignon, the festivities are celebrated with humor and a great deal of community involvement. Furthermore, these activities encourage community participation, fostering a sense of belonging and unity among neighbors.

And, of course, music plays a starring role: powerful bands, DJs spinning until the early hours, and a constant rhythm to keep everyone dancing. The musical program includes a variety of genres to suit all tastes, ensuring everyone finds something to enjoy. The Avignon Festival is undoubtedly an event that attracts both locals and visitors, all eager to experience the vibrant energy of this celebration.

Avinyó, located in the Tenes Valley region, is a town with a rich cultural and historical heritage. In addition to its annual festival, visitors can explore its cobbled streets, savor the local cuisine, and discover its monuments, such as the Church of Santa Maria and the castle. The combination of culture, tradition, and entertainment makes Avinyó an ideal destination for those seeking an authentic Catalan experience.
