Fiestas in La Mata and holidays in La Mata - fiestas in
Spain are official holidays, which are often at the same time as
religious based festivals, and they can last for many days. Spain celebrates
fiestas for patron saints (local Saints) and the Virgin Mary, as well as
festivals for regional communities.
Not all fiestas are celebrated with a carnival type parade, but most of them include, for example - religious processions, street parades, bullfights or flamenco dancing etc. These fiestas and colourful parades are very typical of Spain, and the majority of them are worth a look. On all of the occasional local fiestas
in La Mata, you will always see a good entertaining show!
Red Days 2019 Red Days in Spain are like Bank Holidays in the UK, but they tend to have more of them. Each region can sometimes have their own special days too. Below is a list of all the National Red Days, and some that are local to the Torrevieja or Valencia Regions. On these days, you can expect banks to be closed, as well as most of the smaller Spanish shops and businesses, but all the restaurants remain open - it's recommended to book though, as they can become busier on Red Days and sometimes offer different menus. The supermarkets, if open, can sometimes have shorter hours, so it’s worth checking before you travel too far. January 1st - New Year's Day (Carried over from Sunday in 2019) |
