Festival of Sants (Festa Major de Sants)
When the festivities of Gràcia end, the festivities of Sants begin, so whoever has not had enough or has not been able to go has a second chance, because although each has its own personality, also in the festivities of Sants the neighbors of the streets that participate decorate them in a similar way as it is done in the neighborhood of Gràcia. Among the novelties of the Festa Major is the transfer of the Fair from the surroundings of the Sants Station to the stretch of the Badal and Brasil boulevards between Daoiz y Velarde street and Madrid Avenue due to some works. The main events include the opening speech, awards, pyromusical, concerts, and cultural activities. The Punt Lila will be active every day to prevent and respond to macho aggressions.
