corpuschristisitgesEvery year, in June, Sitges celebrates the Corpus Christi in his own way. People are plucking the petals off Carnation flowers and place them on the patterns on the road. For at least 24 hours major streets are closed. During the day people gather in the main plaza before an altar and a mass of carnation petals is there released.
This is a very nice transformation of the town and therefore it worse to see it.

sonarkidsThe SonarKids is a festival for kids where concerts, workshops, body art, skateboarding, fingerskating, graffiti and dance are organised for children. This festival, which took places for the first time in 2009, is a very good opportunity to share a nice moment in family. The aim of this festival is to open up tiny minds with a winning formula of music, technology and education.

There are for example the Finnish multi-instrumentalist Jimi Tenor and the Majorcan Joan Miquel Olivier making music. Electrotoylets is a Catalan group which will play a mixture of electro music and traditional Catalan music on toy instruments.

The fountains are decorated beautifully for the occasion, with fragrant flowers in red in pink. You should also have a look for the parades of giants and big-headed carnival figures (cabezudos) that converge around the cathedral.
