In the medieval town of Hostalric located on a hill along the AP-7 highway leading from Barcelona to Girona, the Medieval Fair (Fira Medieval) is held every year at the end of March. This is a really entertaining event for adults and children; in 2018 it was held for a 22nd time!
There are processions of disguised characters, knightly battles, archery competitions; craftsmen showing their skills on the streets of the old town and in the fortress. You can buy virtually all kinds of things in the countless tents of the roaming merchants…
A short story with photographs taken during the fair in 2018 can be viewed following the link.
