Description

This is one of the most popular celebrations in the capital. On 25 November, a pilgrimage climbs the Cerro de Santa Catalina to honour the city's co-patron saint, Santa Catalina de Alejandría, whose chapel is located in one of the towers of the Castle. On this day, religious events go hand in hand with a culinary tradition in which grilled sardines take centre stage. The surrounding area fills with stalls and bars where this hugely popular fish is served alongside rice dishes, migas, cured meats, kebabs and more.
