Feria Del Prat de Llobregat
The El Prat de Llobregat Fair is an annual celebration of the city's Fiesta Mayor (Major Festival), usually held in late September. This event stands out for its festive atmosphere and the active participation of the local community.
In 2024, the fair-faced
challenges due to disagreements over its traditional location on the Ronda de
Ponent (Western Ring Road), which was affected by construction work by the
Ministry of Public Works. Initially, negotiations between the City Council and
fairgoers failed to reach an agreement, leading to the temporary cancellation
of the fair.
However, thanks to neighborhood
protests and a petition drive, a last-minute agreement was reached to move the
fair to the Ronda Sud (South Ring Road), in the Sant Cosme neighborhood. This
change allowed the fair to take place from September 27 to 29, 2024, keeping
alive a tradition held dear by residents.
The El Prat de Llobregat Festival
offers various activities, including concerts, cultural and
gastronomic events, and the iconic funfair, attracting people of all ages. The
2024 edition was notable for its resilience and community spirit, demonstrating
the importance of collaboration between local authorities, fairgoers, and
residents to preserve local traditions.

future editions of the fair and the festival, please visit the official website
