CULTURE
The festive activity in La Roca del Vallès is experienced on the streets and squares of the town, 365 days a year, with popular and traditional events of great importance such as the Great Festival of La Roca del Vallès; the Great Festival, the Winter Festival, and the Gathering of Santa Agnès de Malanyanes; the Great Festival and the Festival of the Cross of La Torreta; the Festival of Sant Sadurní; or the Three Tombs, which all bestow their own identity to the municipality. This vibrant, fun and festive programme is organised by local authorities. What’s more, it goes hand in hand with an intense and varied cultural offering that covers all fields of artistic creation and dissemination, with local facilities that aim to respond to the cultural needs of all users; among them is the People’s Memory Archive, which for two decades has given a voice to those people who have wanted to express their experiences during their life.
