What can you do this weekend, near home? (from April 24 to 26) - Sant Jordi Fair and little rice dishes everywhere!

Sant Jordi has passed… but the region doesn’t slow down. The roses still last, the books are not finished and the streets are still eager for movement. It’s that moment when you say “this weekend I’ll rest”… and you end up going out anyway.

From April 24 to 26, Camp de Tarragona, Penedès, and the Terres de l’Ebre continue with the spring after-party: fairs, culture, gastronomy, and shows that make it hard to stay still. And yes, you’ll probably try to do it all.

Castelleres Days of Sant Jordi (Colles vallenques)

The Colla Joves dels Xiquets de Valls will perform in Vilanova i la Geltrú and the Colla Vella dels Xiquets de Valls will perform in Tortosa. No excuses not to see how great castells are made.

💡 Idea of the week

Weekend in “improvise” mode

The best plan is to have none set: choose a town, go with the flow, and end the day somewhere you didn’t expect. It’s that kind of weekend you don’t plan… but remember.

And yes, you’ll probably end up saying you’ll rest next time. But we already know that won’t happen.
