The Festa Major de Grà cia occurs during the second week of August. It is one of Barcelona’s most famous festivals. Locals decorate their streets outrageously and the best is awarded a prize. They have games for the children, live music and dancing, cultural activities and a parade that starts at Plaa Rius i Taulet which has giant carnival figures. The festival ends when devils setting off fireworks run through the streets. The event is free and runs August 15th through the 22nd.
