L’Estartit is all set to celebrate the Day of Santa Anna this Friday, July 26th. On that day tradition plays a significant role.
The jorney will begin at 10:30 am at the Church of Santa Anna with the traditional solemn mass accompanied by the Cobla Foment del Montgrí. This musical group will also headline the double sardana dance sessions of the Festa Major, the first at 12 pm and the second at 8 pm in the Plaça de l’Església. Between the mass and the first sardana , Les Veus de l’Estartit will offer a taste of tavern songs at 11:30 am in the same square.
DJ Sessions with Cavall de Troia at La Pineda
The summer Festa Major will also have space for young people with an innovative and fresh proposal. The Parc de la Pineda will host a musical picnic with sessions from DJ Ryna and DJ Tofu and the Cavall de Troia. This is a dynamic large-format sculpture, created by the artist collective La Llata, which debuted at the Ítaca Sant Joan Festival with great success. It is built on wheels to be mobile, with the intention of energizing events.
Although the Festa Major is Friday the 26th, Santa Anna had a prelude this Saturday with the traditional Giants Meeting organized by the Colla Xiscu i Remei, and it will also have an epilogue. On Saturday, July 27th at 10 pm in the Plaça Llevantina, the Penya Barcelonista Montgrí i Comarca organizes an Havaneres concert with Les Anxovetes and Port Bo and a cremat for everyone.
