An unusual year: traditions that match
In a year marked by surprise, the festivities of Sant Jordi join Easter at a time that evokes the beauty of rooted traditions. With the echoes of the Caramelles songs still present, Sitges is preparing for a celebration that, as usual, promises to be memorable.
The challenge of identity in a changing environment
As Sitges faces the excessive increase in housing prices, its cultural essence is threatened. However, the community strongly maintains its commitment to its roots, and the Easter and Sant Jordi festivals become a reaffirmation of local identity in times of transformation.
Easter: a reflection of faith and tradition
Easter processions, both in the parishes and in public roads, represent an essential moment for the Christian community. Beyond individual beliefs, its continuity symbolizes a deep devotion to the traditions that Sitges have defined over the years.
Caramelles songs: a living tradition
The Caramelles, which resonate on Gloria Saturday and Easter Monday, fill the streets of melodies that celebrate the arrival of spring. Caramelles gangs, with a presence reinforced by female inclusion, have become a fundamental part of Sitges’s cultural heritage, reflecting the importance of maintaining alive traditions among younger generations.
Sant Jordi: a day full of magic
As the celebration of Sant Jordi approaches, the atmosphere in Sitges becomes a party of books and roses. With the growth of the Ribera as a cultural epicenter, the expectations for the next edition are high. The hope of seeing the Board and its bookstore in full operation brings a new dimension to this beloved day.
A future full of traditions
With the gaze on the future, the Sitgetans continue to defend their cultural inheritance, ensuring that the festivities not only remain, but also be enriched over time. The preservation of traditions is essential for the identity of the community, and each celebration represents an opportunity to reaffirm this collective commitment.
