San Miguel Arcángel, head of the Murla parish temple, celebrates his festival on the Saturday after his liturgical feast on September 29. It has always been a municipal festival paid for by the City Council that once celebrated with three days of ‘bous al carrer’. The religious festival consists of a high mass and an evening procession with the Saint through the usual itinerary. Until a few years ago it was headed with an artistic painted script of the Saint, now disappeared.
At present, the ‘Fireta de Sant Miquel’ is taking place, organized by the Department of Culture, which takes place over two days in which there are craft stalls, cultural entertainment and gastronomic demonstrations with great public success. Last year 2006 was completed with the celebration of a day of ‘bous al carrer’, remembering the festivities of yesteryear.
