Festivities of Anna in honour of San Antonio Abad, patron saint of the municipality, held during the third week of January, around the 16th and 17th. On Saturday, blessed loaves and small gifts are given out among the festivity's organisers, and at night a bonfire is lit in the church square. On Sunday the Cabalgata del Abanderado takes place, a horseback procession that hands out sweets and toys, along with the traditional Tirá, the throwing of objects and toys by the festivity's mayordomos.
