Apartments in Castellón in June: Night of San Juan and San Pedro Festival

Apartments in Castellón in June: Night of San Juan and San Pedro Festival

June in Castellón is the prelude to summer: beaches, bonfires, and festivals. The Night of San Juan (June 23) and the San Pedro Festival (June 28) transform the city and coastline into the perfect setting for a multi-day getaway. Staying in an apartment in the city center allows you to experience both festivals without worrying about schedules or long commutes.
Night of San Juan (June 23)
In the Grao district of Castellón, the bonfire is lit in Plaza del Casal Jove, and in the evening there are concerts in Parque de la Panderola, the lighting of the bonfire with a traditional firework display, and a beachy atmosphere. In the Gurugú area, there's a competition for traditional Sant Joan flatbreads, the "Pa i Porta" (Bread and Port) communal dinner, a fire run with the Diables de Castelló (Devils of Castelló), and a fireworks display at midnight. It's a night to enjoy in the streets and on the beach, and being able to walk back to your accommodation is a huge advantage.

San Pedro Festival (June 28)
The San Pedro Festival is celebrated on June 28, with the tradition of distributing Coca de San Pedro (a type of flatbread) and Muscatel wine. It's a deeply rooted tradition in the city and a great excuse to extend your stay a few days after San Juan (St. John's Eve).
