The story behind it
Escaldes-Engordany’s festival evolved from small-scale parish gatherings into a large municipal fiesta since the 1990s, accompanying the town’s growth as a tourist and residential area. It incorporates local heat-of-summer customs (water fights, foam parties, open-air concerts) with Catalan folklore (sardanes, ball de gegants may return). The festival reflects the parish’s mix of cosmopolitan influence and local culture.
