SPECIAL DAYS AND FESTIVITIES
Special days and festivals











The gastronomic parties are an optimal place to know the local cuisine. This type of events have become spaces of promotion of agricultural products and fish, thanks to the professionalism and savoir faire of restaurateurs. The fish and the shellfish of the Delta of the Ebre; and the rice, the oils and the wines with D.O Terra Alta; are the protagonists of a rich, tasty and particular gastronomy that increases the natural, cultural and patrimonial appeals of Terres de l'Ebre.

Local villages celebrate lots of gastronomic fairs. These are initiatives that try to promote the consumption of autochthonous varieties of foods and congregate thousands of people. The virgin olive oil, citrus from Xerta and Alcanar, cherries from Paüls and Miravet or honey from El Perelló are the protagonists of tasting and culinary competitions that are organized during the fairs. This is a good way to know all details, aromas and flavours of the gastronomy of the regions of the Ebro.

Gastronomic parties

Special days and festivalsTo retrieve the meaning of the party, which was not understood in the past without a good dish on the table and with all the family together around it, the local villages go back in time. They organise gastronomic celebrations with a main product. Along one day, the neighbours gather themselves and organise activities where a single ingredient becomes the protagonist.

Thus, there are such particular celebrations as that of the Wine and the Clotxa in Gandesa, which retrieves so a typical recipe in the zone; the Festivity of the Honey in El Perelló, which stands out the qualities of its most distinguished product; and the Party of the Vintage, where Corbera d'Ebre goes back in time with a celebration to get to know it to the youngsters and remember it among the oldest ones.

Gastronomic celebrations

Special days and festivalsThe cuisine and the process of elaboration that some recipes follow are own features of each territory. Ingredients and tradition, which make each dish unique, are the protagonist during certain months of the year thanks to the celebrations dedicated to the local gastronomy in lots of villages.

The gastronomic days dedicated to rice, the traditional recapte (mixture of soup, meat and vegetables) or olive oil, among others, encourage the use of local products. During these days, the restaurants of our region display recipes from ancient times (grandmother's cuisine) as well as the most advanced sophisticated ones. Nothing can take protagonism to the gastronomic particularities that identify village.
