As summer gathers strength and the warm weather settles in, many neighbourhoods and districts within Barcelona get ready for their own festivities. These are the traditional Patron Saint Festivities, which last for a few days and fill the streets with activities, music, concerts, dinners and games for the younger ones. This tradition is much loved by the people of Barcelona, as it allows for more interaction between neighbours and direct participation, all thanks to their pride for belonging to the same neighbourhood.
