The countdown to live October in style in Patraix begins!
From September 17 to October 12, 2026, the Patraix neighborhood will be filled with music, culture, history, and plenty of solidarity as it celebrates the 32nd edition of its Popular Festivities, this year under the motto "Patraix, barri divers" (Patraix, a diverse neighborhood).
Although the full schedule will be unveiled very soon, the event is already building momentum to offer you four unforgettable days.
As tradition dictates, the streets will host the iconic parade of giants and big-heads, pyrotechnic displays, guided tours, contests, street parties, children's workshops, bell-ringing, and crowded community meals.
And watch out, because the celebration will continue from October 8 to 12 around Plaza de Patraix with the «Crafts, Food, and NGO Fair 2026», an ideal space to discover high-quality handmade products at great prices, where you can also learn about the work carried out by participating NGOs.
