The Amics de Sant Josep Association and the Figueres Town Council are preparing the annual Sant Josep Fair for March 28 and 29, featuring the famous local fritters.

The Brunyol Fair celebrates its 33rd year on Saturday at the Rambla. Visitors can enjoy over a hundred stalls selling crafts and food. Parallel activities include giant puppet parades, swing dancing, and children's entertainment at Josep Pla Square.
On Sunday, the 12th Urban Race will take place, serving as the Albert Gurt Memorial. The 5km and 10km routes will pass through the newly renovated Pujada del Castell promenade, starting and ending near the city center.

"The race maintains its traditional route and allows participation with dogs as long as they are leashed."

Toni Vaquero · President of the Amics de Sant Josep Association
