Assumption Day is a public holiday and religious celebration all rolled into one. This day is super important in the Catholic faith as it's the biggest Marian feast day on the calendar.

People across Spain gather together to celebrate and enjoy the festivities on this special day.

11 September, the National Day of Catalonia is celebrated in the beautiful Catalonian Autonomous Region of Spain. It's such a wonderful event that has been celebrated since 1980.

When Catalonia gained special self-government within Spain in late 1979, they were quick to establish this holiday and celebrate their unique culture, traditions, and history.

Did you know that Spain has two "national days"? One of them is the Fiesta Nacional de España, which is celebrated every year on October 12th, in honor of Christopher Columbus's discovery of the Americas in 1492.

It's a big celebration filled with parades, music, and traditional Spanish food. It's a great time to feel the pride of the Spanish culture and history.
