Fires de Sant Narcís


The Fires de Sant Narcís (Festival of Saint Narcissus) is an annual celebration held in Girona, Spain, in honor of Saint Narcissus, the city's patron saint. This festival, which dates back to the 18th century, features a variety of cultural events, including parades, fireworks, live music, and traditional dances. One of the highlights is the "Correfoc" (fire run), where participants dressed as devils run through the streets with fireworks. The festival also includes the impressive "castells" (human towers), where teams build towering structures of people, showcasing strength, balance, and teamwork. The Fires de Sant Narcís celebrates history, tradition, community spirit, and local culture.
