Fira de Tots Sants, six centuries of tradition in Cocentaina

Thanks to a royal privilege granted to the town by King Pere IV the Ceremonious of Aragon, Cocentaina has been celebrating its traditional All Saints Fair, or Fira de Tots Sants, for 662 years.

Every year, thousands of visitors crowd into the streets looking for arts and crafts, agricultural machinery and traditional products, or simply with a view to enjoying the attractions and spectacles beginning next Friday 31st October and ending November 2nd.   

Throughout its history, the Fira de Tots Sants has won a number of awards, including the Bronze Medal for Tourist Merit, although the greatest recognition is undoubtedly the loyalty shown by its visitors year after year.

The fair opens officially at 10.30 a.m. on Friday. Just an hour and a half later, enchantments, potions and creatures will invade Cocentaina as part of the Sophia spectacle. What's more, you will be able to enjoy the fantastic Dimonis performances, concerts by Valencian rock bands, dressage exhibitions and the best cuisine from the Comtat district. Be bewitched by the magic of the Fira de Tots Sants!
