Altafulla celebrates its traditional Night of the Witches, a festivity that not only commemorates the town’s historical and cultural roots, but also seeks to revive the original spirit of the celebration, focusing on magic, mystery and local legends. This event, held every year on the last Fridays and Saturdays of June, transforms the surroundings of the Vila Closa into a setting of fantasy and fascination, where visitors can immerse themselves in the world of witchcraft and ancestral traditions.
Throughout the evening, the cobbled streets and the most emblematic corners of the old town come alive with a wide variety of activities for all audiences. The esoteric market, with its stalls filled with magical objects, amulets, spells and handcrafted products, is one of the night’s main attractions. Visitors can purchase everything from medieval-inspired jewelry to essential oils believed to enhance positive energy, all while mysterious sounds echo between the stone walls.
In addition to the markets, various live performances give the celebration a unique atmosphere. Theatre, dance and music groups inspired by witchcraft and local folklore captivate audiences with their live shows. One of the most eagerly awaited moments is the staging of ancient legends, which transport spectators back to times when magic and stories of witches were part of everyday life for the people of Altafulla.
Themed workshops are also a key part of the Night of the Witches. Children and adults alike can take part in activities such as creating magical potions, crafting talismans or learning ancestral rituals, all under the guidance of master artisans and experts in esotericism. These workshops offer a hands-on and educational experience that allows participants to discover the area’s cultural roots while having fun.
The Night of the Witches is not only a festive event, but also a way of preserving and sharing the legends that have shaped Altafulla’s history. Through this celebration, the organizers aim to bring the spectacle of magic that fills the heart of the town to the community, inviting both residents and visitors to reconnect with their roots and traditions.
