The capital of Alt Urgell is gearing up for the nineteenth edition of the Medieval-Legendary Fair, taking place on May 30 and 31, featuring a blend of history and legend.

This event, returning after a seven-year hiatus, will transform the historic center into a vibrant hub of culture, craftsmanship, and gastronomy. Visitors will find 92 stalls, including twelve food trucks, twenty food stands, thirty-one clothing and accessories stalls, and twenty-nine craft stalls.

"The revival of the event highlights Canonges street, culture, our medieval past, and our own identity as a city."

The fair will be structured into three thematic zones, with streets being renamed to recreate an authentic medieval setting. In addition to the stalls, there will be demonstrations of ancient trades and a gastronomic offering inspired by the era, with seventeen participating restaurants identified by a castle gate pictogram.

"The commitment to a fusion between the medieval and Legendary fair aims to enhance the literary aspect of the event."
