The
first seven are celebrated in the 3º Sunday of Passover, being
later delayed for the second Sunday of August, due to the intensity
of the agricultural works, to the rigidity of the climate that
exists in that time and to the interest of attracting more pilgrims,
today such date still maintains and with the duration of five days
(from Thursday to Monday)
This week is lived intensely, in the spectacles
or in the processions, in the animation of the streets, appreciating
the fireworks and the ornamentations or in the shopping in any hut
of the fair.
