Every June, Reus comes alive with one of the most iconic celebrations of the year: Sant Joan and Corpus, a unique blend of tradition, culture, and fire that fills the streets with music, color, and excitement. And there’s no better place to experience it than Hotel Centre Reus, located right in the heart of the city, just steps away from the main events.
A Celebration for All the Senses
Starting Thursday, June 19, Reus dresses up with the traditional Toc de Festa from the bell tower, dances by the Mulassa and Gegants, and the popular tasting of the traditional cherry coca in Plaça del Mercadal. All just a few minutes’ walk from the hotel — ideal for anyone wanting to soak in the festive atmosphere without worrying about transport.
Over the weekend, the city offers endless activities: children’s workshops like stained glass making next to the Gaudí Centre, concerts, exhibitions, theatrical tours of the town hall, and fire shows such as the famous Bous de Foc, which storm through the city center in a dazzling display of fireworks and tradition.
Corpus and Popular Culture
On June 21 and 22, the Corpus festivities also take place, featuring the solemn Professó, the traditional Ou com Balla in Plaça del Castell, and flower carpets decorating the religious procession route. It’s all part of the festive atmosphere that fills every corner of downtown Reus.
Your Stay at the Heart of the Festival
Staying at Hotel Centre Reus means you won’t miss a thing. Its strategic location allows you to enjoy all the key events up close, without needing transport or dealing with complications. Step out for a show, return to rest, and head back out for the fire night or concerts at Parc de la Festa.
During Sant Joan, Reus becomes a vibrant, festive, and welcoming city. And you can experience it from the inside, with maximum comfort and the best atmosphere.
Book your stay and get ready to enjoy a unique experience in the heart of tradition.
