1 review of Llanes Feasts

Llanes Feasts

Llanes Day on July 22 is the day of St. Mary Magdalene. Hundreds of residents and others come together in a colorful procession and take a walk to the Magdalena. In the procession (which is held in the morning, after Mass) there are plenty of bagpipes, Porruanos (the name given to men wearing the costume of a town called Porrúa Llanes) and Llanes ( the name given to women for the same reason). They bear the image of the saint, while they sing to the monotonous rhythm of tambourines. In the afternoon there are usually sporting and other activities for children, and at night a great festival, where the people are usually entertained by local bands, ending at around 6 am with hot chocolate or garlic soup.
