This Saturday will see the start of the major festivals of our city. Known mainly for the bous a la mardeclared of National Tourist Interest, and that every year become news. But Dénia's festivities are much more than that.

The consolidation of the festival, according to legend, is due to the healing of the population from a serious illness after taking the image of the Christ of the Holy Blood in procession on the initiative of the Dianese Friar Pere Esteve, "Pare Pere", in the 17th century.

Today they are celebrated around the Day of the Most Holy Blood, which is celebrated on the second Wednesday after the feast of St. Peter.

In addition to the religious events, a multitude of performances and events of all kinds are organised for the enjoyment of locals and visitors alike.
