- fiestas
- A fiesta in Spain can be a day of neighborhood celebrations, a larger event for a town or city, or a national holiday, to commemorate a saint's day or some historical event. For example, Madrid has the fiestas de San Isidro, in honor of its patron saint. Other famous Spanish holidays include the Fallas in Valencia, the Sanfermines in Pamplona, and the Feria de Sevilla.
They can last for a week or more, during which everyday life is often interrupted. Classes in schools may stop and banks, stores, and post offices alter their opening hours. There are often bullfights and dancing to live bands and people eat and drink plentifully.
- Sanfermines
- The fiestas de San Fermín, Pamplona's patron saint, are the festival for which the Navarrese capital has become world-famous. It begins on July 6 with the txupinazo, the firing of a rocket in the main square. The bull-running, or encierro, starts at 8 a.m. the following day and takes place every day until July 14. The bulls that will fight that evening are released, and those who wish to, usually young men, run in front of them. Accidents are frequent.
- Feria de Sevilla
- A two-week celebration in Seville, Spain, starting two weeks after Semana Santa.
The fair centers around the fairground in the south of Seville with many and varied amusement stands and food stalls. Another feature is the famous casetas. These are wooden houses that serve as private places in which the peña, clubs formed by people taking part in the fair, gather to dance, sing, eat and drink.
- Fallas
- The most important festival in the autonomous region of Valencia. The Fallas take place every year between March 12 and 19.
The highlight is the burning of the fallas on the night of March 19. Fallas are groups of huge painted cardboard and wood figures which depict current events and famous people.
Each neighborhood makes its own falla. They are erected on one night, known as the plantá, and displayed the next day. A panel of judges "pardons" the best one and it is placed in the falla museum.
- fiestas patrias
- In Latin America, a period of one or more days on which each country celebrates its independence. There are usually military parades, firework displays, and folk activities typical of the country.
