Santa Eulalia traditionally celebrates the arrival of summer with a big shindig centred around the first Sunday in May which seems to get bigger and longer each year. Full of sporting events, fun, games, competitions, live music, dancing and of course food, there's something for everyone, locals and visitors alike.
I've extracted the best of the events from the official programme which would suit non Catalan/Spanish speaking visitors to the town.
