The 24th of June is the celebration of Sant Juan in Catalunya and in some other places like Valencia. It´s a bank holiday, but more important is the ´magic´night of the 23rd of June when the beginning of the summer is celebrated. People have dinner at home or in a restaurant with afterwards a special desert which is called coca, a cake made of puff pastry covered with pine nuts and/ or fruits. After dinner, at about 10pm, the party starts. You will see, and especially hear, fireworks everywhere. Apart from the fireworks, bonfires are part of the tradition. Although they are forbidden in most areas people burn old furniture saved during the year. A good place to go are the Barcelona beaches where people dance and drink till sunrise enjoying the start of the summer.
You don´t want to miss this magic night? Rent an apartment in Barcelona for Sant Juan.
