Calendar of Holidays in Spain?

[Kathy F.]

Can someone put together a calendar of holidays in Spain for pilgrims to use as part of their planning?

I’ve never gotten stuck, but it seems that, once or twice, posters are caught trying to find beds only to discover that they are in the middle of a local or religious holiday.

If I had any internet skills at all, I’d do it myself but, for me, this would be a project that could take years, lol!

Just a thought.

Click on the tag (fiestas/holidays/markets) I have put under the title of this thread.

However, be aware that apart from national and regional holidays, there are also local holidays. So, there's always the possibility that it might be a holiday in one town and not a holiday in the next one

Speaking of which - tomorrow is a holiday in Galicia: May 17 is Galician Literature day.

Grocery stores will/may be closed, so if you're in Galicia right now you may want to go shopping before things close! Cafes and restaurants should still be open.

What about Pilgrim House?

Wakey, wakey!
As is clear from above residents, we from foreign parts need to smarten up if we wish to organise our plans to fit in.
Yes, fit in.
Not beat, not superimpose, just simply be aware.

Can I say I love the fact that there’s a holiday to celebrate literature? That’s just awesome.
