The city of Vilanova i la Geltrú is getting ready to welcome Easter 2026, offering a mix of religious traditions and local commerce between April 3rd and 6th.

Key dates include Good Friday on April 3rd and Easter Sunday on April 5th. These days are traditionally spent with family, enjoying local gastronomy and the first sunny days of spring along the Garraf coastline.
A major highlight will be the Easter Artisan Market, set to take place in the city center, specifically on Rambla Principal and Rambla de la Pau. The market will feature handmade jewelry, home decor, and traditional seasonal treats from local artisans.
The festivities will conclude on Easter Monday, April 6th, a public holiday in Catalonia. This day is typically celebrated outdoors, with residents and tourists flocking to the beaches of Ribes Roges and Sant Gervasi to enjoy the Mediterranean atmosphere.
