About
Festa Major de Sants runs August 22–30 with decorated streets, gegants parades, castellers building human towers, and kids' programming. The festival features floral offerings, sardana dances, stick dancing exhibitions, community meals, and a closing correfoc fire run. Around 11 streets and squares compete for decoration prizes, with a smaller, locally-focused atmosphere than neighboring Gràcia.
