The Sants neighborhood has set the dates for its most iconic celebration: the 2026 Major Festival will take place between August 22 and 30.

The organization has confirmed that actress and director Letícia Dolera will deliver the opening speech on Saturday, August 22, at the Parc de l'Espanya Industrial. This event will mark the beginning of a week full of cultural and traditional activities in the district.
Regarding the graphic image for this year's edition, the poster was designed by illustrator Mamen Díaz. The author wanted to highlight the nightlife that characterizes the neighborhood's major festivals.
Although the detailed program with concert schedules and street activities will be announced soon, the schedule will maintain traditional events. These include the correfoc, the human tower exhibition (diada castellera), and the floral offering to Sant Bartomeu, the neighborhood's patron saint.
