The story

Festa Major Encamp in Encamp

Encamp's Festa Major fills the parish centre in mid-August with a solemn Mass of Sant Roc at the Church of Santa Eulàlia, paddle tournaments and traditional games at several locations, processions with marching bands, shared dinners, concerts and evening entertainment spread across several summer days.

A solemn Mass of Sant Roc at the Church of Santa Eulàlia anchors the religious side of Encamp's Festa Major, while paddle tournaments and traditional games scattered across several locations carry the parish's more competitive, communal energy through the same August weekend.

What is special

The part that makes it specific.

01

The place changes

The paddle tournaments give this festa a participatory sporting layer that purely spectator-focused parish festivals lack, letting visitors and residents enter rather than only watch

02

The mystery stays covered

The Mass of Sant Roc at the specifically named Church of Santa Eulàlia anchors the religious programme to a fixed, identifiable site rather than a generic outdoor ceremony, distinguishing it from Encamp's separate Whit Monday observance at the parish's other historic church, Sant Romà de Vila
