The Festival of La Mercè, 24 Sept 2008, is dedicated to the patron saint of Barcelona, the Virgin of Mercy, and involves a fabulous assortment of popular Catalan traditions and mythology. The city celebrates by hosting one of the biggest parties of the year with street music and dancing, fairs, theatre, concerts and parades. Firework spectacles light up figures of dragons and devils, and gigantic folklore icons of Catalonia (gegants) are paraded through the city centre, while traditional teams of Castellers build human pyramids in St Jaume Plaza.
