Fiestas patronales Roda, 26th to 31st August 2014

Music and lots of activities for all ages

The pedanía of Roda, which falls inside the municipality of San Javier, celebrates its Fiestas Patronales this week in honour of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios. These are typical village fiestas with a mixture of live music and family activities, as well as a foam party. The character of some of the acts is dictated by the presence of a good-sized group of Expat residents who enjoy their own English breakfast and supper on the Thursday.
All activities are free unless otherwise indicated and all are welcome to come along and join in the celebrations.
