An annual fair Fira de Sant Martirià takes place in Banyoles every third weekend of November. Its history dates back to 1243, but the event became a traditional, annual occurrence in the 1970s.
The spotlight of the Fair is on horse showcase competitions. Besides the expected purebred Arabian and Spanish stallions, breeders also showcase horses that are native to Catalonia and other autonomous communities in Spain.
The Banyoles Fair is dedicated to agriculture at large, so it caters to a wide range of interests. Planning a visit? Find out more in this article.
