Virgen de los Angeles

The Javea fiesta, "Virgen de los Angeles" is held during the first week of August and is located in the area of the Monastery La Mare de Déu dels Àngeles.

This Monastery was built in 1962 on the foundation of an old Sanctuary in which the "La Virgen de los Ángeles" painting was discovered. Formerly during this time of year, many La Plana homes filled with friends and family members who visited here to celebrate these festivities. The programme includes the celebration of the Mass, the Procession and of course street dance.

The popular street dance, the games, the "despertà” (firecracker wake-up activities) with “dolçaina and tabalet” music or the snacks with "coca-maria" and "mistela" (cake and muscatel wine) are several of the activities.
