Burial of the Sardine - Farewell to the Carnival in Slab

Parade with humor, music and fire + reading of the “testament” and popular sardine dinner

The Lloseta Carnival says goodbye as tradition dictates: with the Enterrament of the Sardine, a parade full of irony and symbolism to close the days of celebration. There is a procession with “endolats” (for mourning) and a coffin, music in the street, reading of the will… and the finale with sardines at popular prices. 

✅ Why go
Very authentic and fun plan: it mixes theatricality, music and that typical satirical touch of carnival. And the best thing: it ends with a popular dinner, so it becomes a complete afternoon-night plan. 

❌ To keep in mind
If you want to see the reading of the will and the final atmosphere well, arrive with a margin and stay until the closing (this is when the event “feels most”).
