  3. Bisbal d'Empordà Major Festival
From 14 to 18 August
La Bisbal d'Empordà
This event is over.

La Bisbal d'Empordà takes to the streets once again to celebrate its annual festival, a celebration brimming with tradition, music, and activities for all ages. For several days, squares, gardens, and streets will be transformed into stages where you can reconnect with locals, participate in the festivities, and discover the city's vibrant spirit.

Popular culture will be a central focus of the celebration. The ringing of bells, the opening proclamation, and the traditional breaking of the water jug will give way to parades featuring giants, jackdaws, drums, and emblematic figures. The Eagle, the Dragons, and the rest of the festive imagery will once again fill the old town with color, movement, and excitement.

Fire will also play a prominent role. The storm, the nighttime parades, and the correfoc (fire run) will offer some of the most intense moments, transforming the streets into a grand visual and auditory spectacle.

Music will fill a wide variety of venues, with concerts, dances, electronic music sessions, lively vermouth gatherings, and open-air dance nights. You'll find current acts, emerging bands, traditional music, and performances designed for singing and dancing until late. Sardana dances, family shows, and children's activities will round out a broad and diverse program.

There will also be sports, competitions, games, an open house at the museum, and activities that will allow you to learn more about the ceramic heritage of La Bisbal. The fair will also have an accessible area to provide a more comfortable experience for people with sensory sensitivities.

Come to Bisbal de Empordà and let yourself be carried away by a lively, diverse and deeply rooted festival, made to enjoy the street, the traditions and the shared joy!
