Llafranc keeps its patron-saint festival for the last weekend of August: four days of concerts, sardanes and beach events in the cove below the Sant Sebastià lighthouse.
What it is
Llafranc — one of the three coves that belong to Palafrugell — holds its festa major from Thursday 27 to Sunday 30 August 2026. The patron is Santa Rosa, and the parish church that carries her name sits a street back from the seafront.
What is programmed
The opening act published by the council is the Santa Rosa concert with the Coral Nit de Juny, Thursday 27 August at 21:30. The rest of the four days runs on the neighbourhood association's own programme, which the town's culture office publishes at cultura.palafrugell.cat rather than in the printed August agenda — check it before travelling, because individual acts move.
Two fixed points nearby that weekend, both free and both listed in the municipal agenda:
- Sardanes on Plaça Nova, Friday 28 August at 20:00, with the Cobla Ciutat de Girona.
- Sardanes at the Port Bo in Calella, Saturday 29 August at 18:30, with the Cobla Baix Empordà — the "ballada dins el mar", danced standing in the shallows.
Getting there
Llafranc is about 4 km from Palafrugell town. In August the cove's own car parks fill by mid-morning; the bus from the Palafrugell station on Carrer Lluís Companys and the camí de ronda from Calella (about 25 minutes on foot) are both easier than driving in.
