Virgen de la Paloma Festivity in Madrid
On August 15 marks the day of the Virgen de la Paloma, popular patron saint of Madrid.
During the 5-day celebration, street fairs brighten the streets of Madrid near the center (Calle Toledo, Calle de la Paloma, Vistillas Square and the Plaza de la Paja) where bars take to the streets, and neighbors wear Chulapos and Chulapas costumes. Numerous events such as processions, contests, children's parties, mobile discos, dances and concerts are scheduled during the festival.
