Among these acts, there will be some more traditional, such as the Prego, the Romeria de les Canyes, the Parade of Gaiates and l'Encesa de Gaiates, the offering to the Mare de Déu del Lledó or the Magdalena Vitol, which will put the icing on the cake as all previous years.
The Fiestas de la Magdalena are synonymous of gunpowder. From 5th to 11th March, the 24th Contest of Mascletàs Castellon City will take place, while the 8th International Festival of pyrotechnics City of Castellón will take place from 7th to 10th March. On Saturday 10th, there will be a mixed mascletà on the fishing port of Castellón and they will also offer the popular Nit Màgica, by Xarxa Teatre, and the traditional Enfarolà del Campanar (Bell-tower) del Fadrí. A wonderful show that will make us vibrate!
Among the scheduled events, you can also visit the I Romantic Magdalena Festival, with performances by the group Jacaranda from Castellón and Parrandboleros from Murcia, who will offer a recital with romantic themes. In addition, the Fiestas de la Magdalena will receive a special guest. David Bustamante will act on the premises of Recinto de Ferias y Mercados on Saturday 10th March.
The FAMM! will bring life to the streets of Castellón with the best international music with more than 30 bands, groups and companies. And the Herman’s Moreno, los Ballou, Contaminando Sonrisas or José Ferreas & Isidro Silveira will receive their well-deserved applause in a new edition of the Magdalena Circus.
