Viladasens is preparing to celebrate the Sant Calixt Festival on October 17-18, 2026, with a weekend packed with activities designed for all audiences.

The celebration will kick off on Saturday morning with children's workshops.

The evening will continue with live music by the group Adrenalina, a 'titots' (puppets) contest, a disco music session, and the Nit Jove (Young Night) with 2 Ases DJ’s.
Sunday will begin with the traditional popular walk, followed by a Color Foam Party for the little ones. At midday, the Festival Mass will be held at the Sant Vicenç church, accompanied by the music of Cobla La Principal de Porqueres, who will later offer a performance and sardana dance.
The festive day will continue with a communal lunch, costing 20 euros per person. In the afternoon, the group Vela Blanca will perform habaneras, preceding the traditional 'rom cremat' (spiced rum) to conclude the festival events.
Most activities will take place at the town's Civic Centre. To attend the Saturday dinner and Sunday lunch, advance reservations must be made before October 14, either at the Town Hall or by calling 696 48 98 42.
