The second festa major of the year for Reus includes a mixture of religious events, music, dancing, castells (human towers) and the Correfoc - the 'devils' letting of firecrackers in the streets.

To mark the city's Festes de Sant Medir de Gràcia in the first week of March, a procession of carriages and mounted riders parades around the Plaça Rius i Taulet bearing the banners of groups who organize the event, before heading along the Arrasbassada towards the hermitage of the patron saint of broad beans, Sant Medir, to enjoy a legumbre-filled lunch. In the afternoon, the procession parades down Gran de Gracia, tossing sweets into the crowd.

Santa Tecla is Tarragona's major festival (Festa Major) and has been declared an event of national interest. The central events are the procession and castells (human towers) but there's lots more from music to food and sporting events.

Round 7 of the Motorcycle MotoGP is held at the Circuit de Catalunya, north of Barcelona with practice and time trials on the 8th and 9th of June and the opportunity for those holding 3 day tickets to visit the pit lane on the afternoon of the 7th.

Semana Santa runs in the last week of March. On Palm Sunday Padrinos, (Godparents) give decorated and/or woven collections of ornate Palm leaves to their Godchildren, only to be followed by the giving of Monas elaborate chocolate creations involvng Easter Eggs or the latest fad from the Simpsons to Harry Potter. The processions of Semana Santa can be seen in the Gothic Quarter of Barcelona, hundreds of people carrying Jesus and His Mother to the Cathedral, amid the sound of drums and trumpets. It's a spectacle to be enjoyed all over Catalunya though not on the scale that it's done in the south of Spain.
