San Bartolomé Town Council has presented the programme for the Fiestas Patronales de San Bartolomé 2026, a full schedule of activities running from 3 to 24 August that will once again turn the municipality into a great meeting place for residents and visitors, combining tradition, culture, sport, leisure and community participation.
The fiestas kick off on Thursday 6 August with the traditional pregón (opening address), delivered this year by the Club de Lucha San Bartolomé in recognition of its track record and its contribution to sport and to the municipality's identity. The evening will also include musical performances, the opening of the historical photography exhibition Memorias and a parranda (folk music) night to launch several weeks packed with activities.
