The San Nicasio neighborhood in Leganés will be filled with Galician flavor and tradition with the celebration of the Galician Seafood Fair, taking place from Thursday, November 12 to Sunday, November 15 in Plaza del Milenio.

For the fourth consecutive year, the event will feature bagpipe performances, tasting of typical products, a popular queimada (traditional bonfire drink), the classic ‘Magosto’ (chestnut roasting), and children's workshops, all under a large tent. The Agrupación Artística Rosalía de Castro will provide entertainment with parades and traditional Galician music.
Councilman and President of the Municipal District Board, Jesús Rodríguez, highlighted the importance of these events for revitalizing neighborhoods. "When we came into government, we emphasized the need to bring life to our neighborhoods, and we have achieved it. This event is the perfect excuse for residents to enjoy activities without leaving Leganés," he stated.
The fair will kick off on Thursday, November 12 at 8:00 PM with bagpipers and a free mussel tasting with any purchase. On Friday, November 13, there will be a ‘Magosto’ at 6:00 PM and a traditional queimada at 10:45 PM. On Saturday, November 14, a parade by the Agrupación Rosalía de Castro will take place at 6:00 PM, and on Sunday, November 15, from 6:30 PM to 8:00 PM, children's workshops will be held.
The Agrupación Rosalía de Castro, one of the oldest Galician groups in Spain, is participating for the third year, contributing to keeping Galician folklore alive.
