The Cervera Coven

From 30/08/2024 to 01/09/2024
Cervera

One more year the city of Cervera will celebrate the new edition of L'Aquelarre!

Aquelarre is the festival of fire, music and witches of the Lands of Ponent, an explosion of popular culture that is celebrated in this municipality every last Saturday of August.

During the festival, Cervera is filled with life, smells and colors during this magical and mysterious festival, where the community becomes a big family, sharing smiles, laughter and the excitement of an event that connects the past with the present.

The acts will be spread over the weekend, starting on Friday night and ending on Sunday. The celebration will take place in the Cal Racó de Cervera square. There will be dance of devils, music and parties for all audiences. The little ones will be able to enjoy the children's parade, the Aquerralet.

The celebration begins with the recitation of prayers in old Catalan, recalling the rituals that witches were said to perform to bless the crops and protect the town. Afterwards, with lit torches, a mysterious procession heads towards the sacred forest, where dances and songs are performed in honor of nature and spirits.

During the night, various activities are organized, such as the elaboration of magic potions with herbs from the environment, fire and juggling shows and theatrical performances of popular tales.
