The La Seu d'Urgell City Council has announced the 19th edition of the Medieval-Llegendària Fair, scheduled for the weekend of May 30 and 31 in the city's historic heart.

This edition marks the return of a tradition that has been absent for six years. The event has been redesigned to integrate the classic historical market with the Llegendària literary project, aiming to offer a cultural experience where history and fantasy meet.

"After six years of absence, it was time for a bold rethink to return the essence of this proposal to its natural space, Canonges Street."

Joan Barrera · Mayor of La Seu d'Urgell
The fair will feature an immersive route starting at Plaça dels Oms, passing through the Cathedral of Santa Maria d'Urgell, and extending to Pati Palau. The streets will be transformed with period decorations and characters to recreate the Middle Ages.
Programming includes medieval battles, falconry displays, and traditional craft workshops. A dedicated literary space at Pati Palau will focus on storytelling and books, aiming to engage younger audiences in a playful and educational environment.
