Local festivals in Argentina and Spain

Overview

Various cultural and local festivals are being organized across Argentina and Spain during the mid-to-late summer period.

In Argentina, the 15th edition of the Crack Bang Boom international comic convention in Rosario is scheduled for August 13 to 16. Hosted at venues including the Centro de Expresiones Contemporáneas, the event features artists, illustrators, and writers such as Chris Bachalo and Peter Milligan. Programming includes workshops, book presentations, the Trillo Awards, and a cosplay competition. Additionally, the National Spring Festival in Monte Hermoso is expected to feature musical performances by bands such as Cruzando el Charco and Guasones.

In Spain, Les Festes del Porrat in Polop de la Marina, which honors San Roque, will be celebrated from August 13 to 16. Originating from a traditional market known as a ‘porrat’, the festivities include a parade of humor, musical performances, and communal gatherings. Other celebrations include a five-day program in Palanques involving religious services and traditional activities, and the San Bartolomé festivities in Montoro, which combine modern entertainment like DJ sets with local traditions such as the release of ‘La Diablilla’ much earlier in the season.
