Patron Festivities of Fiestas San Vicente Ferrer – Valleseco

• The municipality of Valleseco, in the main apple growing area of Gran Canaria, celebrate their Patron Saint’s Festivities in honour of San Vicente Ferrer between 30 May – 22 June 2025.

• The main feast Day is on Monday 6 June, with a Livestock Fair that will take place from 10:00, where hundreds of cattle will gather sheep, goats, and horses before the main religious acts.

The municipality will celebrate its traditional, ‘Huevo Duro’, Hard Egg Festival in honour of Saint Vincent Ferrer, commemorating the 279th anniversary of the arrival of the venerated image of the saint to his namesake shrine. The program combines popular culture, gastronomy, with cider as the main feature, sports, and family activities that invite residents and visitors from across the island to share the traditions and roots of this town in the midlands of the island.

Did you know… Valleseco means “dry valley” in Spanish, but is one of the wettest municipalities on the island.
