Every autumn, Sitges dresses up to celebrate one of its most emblematic and eagerly awaited events: the Festa de la Verema i Mostra de Vins (Grape Harvest Festival and Wine Show), a perfect combination of culture and gastronomy with winemaking roots. With over 60 years of history, the Festa de la Verema (Grape Harvest Festival) pays tribute to the town’s winemaking past, particularly associated with Malvasia de Sitges wine, an indigenous variety and a symbol of Sitges’ identity.

Tastings… and contests

In addition to the opening speech and the pressing of the first must, we can also witness unique traditions such as the Concurs de Trepitjadors de Raïm (Grape Treading Contest) and the weighing of the Pubilla and the Hereu of Sitges in bottles of wine, both held in collaboration with Bodegas Torres. These activities have been embraced by the town’s young people, making this gastronomic and cultural festival a deeply rooted event among the local population. Every October, the Mostra de Vins (Wine Show) becomes a  meeting point throughout the weekend, filling the Passeig de la Ribera and La Fragata with a selection of wineries from the Garraf and the DO Penedès, where you can taste wines and cavas in an open-air space by the sea.
