Noite de San Xoán nos pubs da A.C Cidade Vella
The members of the Cultural Association Cidade Vella have prepared various activities in several squares of Compostela’s Old Town to celebrate the most magical night of the year. There will be music, sardiñadas (grilled sardines), snacks, quitameigallos (ritual bonfires), dance groups, foliadas (traditional music gatherings), DJs and, above all, lots of partying.
The activities will kick off at 6 p.m. in Praza de San Martiño with music by Atlántico and O Camalea, starting with a DJ set by Guin followed by DJ Vilouta, along with snacks and a quitameigallos fire.
The route continues nearby at Casa das Crechas with a sardiñada and its traditional foliada, or at Gramola in Praza de Cervantes, featuring the dance group “Os Vivantes.”
The celebration goes on at A Borriquita de Belén in San Paio, where there will be sardines, churrasco (grilled meat), and music, and at Modus Vivendi and A Xuntanza with DJ sets, cauldron fires, and more sardiñadas.

Festivals
The festivities dedicated to the Apostle, the patron saint of Santiago, of Galicia and of all of Spain, last for about a fortnight. This festival combines religious and official solemnity, tradition and entertainment, which turn the entire city into a large fiesta.
July 24th and 25th are the two main days. On the night of July 24th there is an impressive firework display in honour of the Apostle, visible from different points in the city.
