Festa da Dorna
July 18th to 24th – Ribeira, A Coruña.
In this Fiesta, the “star” event is the “Rejata de Embarcasións Feitas á Machada e Propulsión a Pan de Millo. Jran Premio Cutre Sark“. To participate, you have to build a dorna (small fishing boat) with much more fun and carnival decorations, the better. It will be held on the 24th at Coroso beach. Near this beach is where a party is also celebrated, with tasting of wines and sardines.
In addition to the boat race, the Festa da Dorna has more events, including “Top Secret“, in which more than 4,000 people parade through the streets parodying a real theme or character, or the “Jran Prix of carrilanas“, in which men and women, climbed in vehicles made by them, descend a hill from the” Alto da Mámoa” to the Plaza del Ayuntamiento.
The party finishes in the Paseo del Malecon with a Concert in which they perform their own anthem, “o himno dorneiro”.
This party has activities that we recommend you to see in person. Here you have more information https://www.facebook.com/afestadadorna/
