Sant Joan de Vilatorrada Festival
The Sant Joan de Vilatorrada Festival is the town's main festive event, held annually around the feast of Saint John at the end of June. For a few days, the town transforms with a diverse program designed for all ages, combining tradition and modernity with cultural activities, live music, shows, and popular events that fill the streets with life and community spirit.
Within this festive context, the program maintains the most iconic elements of the celebration, such as concerts, outdoor activities, and gastronomic and cultural offerings that invite both locals and visitors to experience the town from within. The Fiesta Mayor thus becomes a space for meeting, community, and discovery, where local culture and the festive atmosphere merge to offer a complete experience deeply rooted in the region.
The 2026 edition includes a notable new feature, "La Previa," a late-night gastronomic event taking place on June 22nd from 8:00 to 10:30 pm in the Plaza Mayor. This event will bring together several San Juan tapas restaurants—Riki's, Restaurante Joncadella, Bar El Patio, Restaurante El Secreto, Restaurante La Grieta, and Bar Avenida—accompanied by desserts from La Dolçor and cocktails from Mamba Cocktail Van. All of this, with music by DJ Gami, will create a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere, ideal for enjoying a summer evening with great food, music, and the best festive ambiance in town.
