We have a new website

Hello friends, you already know about this news because you're reading this. What you don't know yet is that as we want this site to be as complete as possible, we would like your help to grow our archive of photographs.If you have photos of the Fira, whether old ones or more current, you can send them to this address: lafira@firadesantallucia.cat. If you know the year and/or who the photographer was, please tell us. After uploading they will be resized to 800x600 px and 72 ppi for use on the website. If you prefer to resize them yourself before uploading, please remember that the minimum size is 800x600 px and 72 ppi.

Relocation on Avinguda de la Catedral

For greater security and ease of access to the Fira some stands have been relocated in the sectors of Nativities and Figures, and Christmas greenery, and all of the Crafts section, which can be found on Avinguda de la Catedral, near Via Laietana. To make it easier to find stands and the different sectors we have also changed the numbering system.

To help you find your way around we offer plans of the Fira at the various information points and in the "Plan" section of this website. You can consult the equivalences between the old and new numbers on a special page.

Activities at the Fira

As we do every year, we are organising various activities such as the Giant Tió of the Fira (a log which produces presents!), the traditional Carassa parade, the awarding of the prize for the Stallholder of Honour, and much more. For more detailed information go to the Activities section.
