Mataró
This event is over.

The Gypsy Dance of Mataró returns to dance for Carnival, accompanied, as usual, by La Principal de la Bisbal!

The Maestros del Gay Saber Cultural Association organizes this highly anticipated event during Carnival, a spectacle with roots in Mataró dating back to the late 19th century. This time, attendees will be able to enjoy dancing to the rhythm of the copla "La Principal de la Bisbal."

The stars of this dance are the mimosa, the colorful dresses, the dances, and the sound of traditional songs, which lend a festive and genuine atmosphere to the event. The music and dances performed are authentic and reflect the cultural traditions of the region.

This event is one of the most popular and well-attended parts of the Carnival festivities, and each year it receives the blessing of Pellofa, a moment that adds a special touch to the celebration. The community's participation and the enthusiasm of the attendees make the Ball de Gitanes an unforgettable experience.

If you love folk culture and traditions, don't miss it! Mataró, with its rich history and festive atmosphere, is the perfect place to experience this celebration. Take the opportunity to discover other aspects of this city, such as its modernist architecture, its beaches, and its local cuisine. Enjoy a day full of music, dance, and fun!
