March
Festes de Sant Medir de Gracia
To mark Barcelona's Festes de Sant Medir de Gracia in the first
week of March, a procession of carriages and mounted riders parades
around the Plaça Rius i Taulet bearing the banners of groups who
organize the event, before heading along the Arrasbassada
towards the hermitage of the patron saint of broad beans, Sant
Medir, to enjoy a legumbre-filled lunch. In the afternoon, the
procession parades down Gran de Gracia, tossing sweets into the
crowd.
