Santa Margarita gathering

The Aplec de Santa Margarida de Vilobí d’Onyar is celebrated every July 20, coinciding with the feast of Santa Margarida d’Antioquia, patron saint of the municipality. The festival takes place around the historic hermitage of Santa Margarida and combines religious tradition, popular culture and local meeting places.

 

Organized by the Vilobí d’Onyar City Council, the gathering begins in the morning with the celebration of Holy Mass and a popular breakfast or hot chocolate for all attendees. In the afternoon, the recitation of the Holy Rosary and the traditional procession are celebrated. The day ends in the evening with the typical raffle of cakes and a sardana audition, often performed by the La Flama de Farners cobla.

 

In some special editions, the programming is expanded with night activities such as vigils or stargazing.
