Hey, hey, hey! Pay attention everyone because I have a great plan for you that you can't miss. If you are one of those who love things made with art, tradition and a touch of magic in the form of bobbins, mark this date on your calendar: on October 20, 2024, in the Plaza España in Fraga, the XXXVIII Bobbin Meeting will be held. Yes, yes, you heard right! 38 editions of pure history between threads, pins and those bobbins that make authentic wonders!
Let's see, this isn't just for those who know all the tricks of bobbin lace, no, no, this is a plan for everyone. I guarantee that, even if you don't even know how to hold one of those magic sticks, you'll be amazed to see how the fastest hands in Fraga and many other places get to work to create authentic works of art. All this, in an incomparable setting such as Plaza España, with the imposing Tower of the Church of San Pedro in the background!
Fraga: History, Bobbins and Much More!
Ok, but if you think you're just going to see lace, you're wrong! Fraga is amazing, so take advantage of the fact that you're here to soak up some of its history. This city has a special energy, with its Roman roots and its impressive old town. A walk through its cobbled streets and, suddenly, you come across the Church of San Pedro and its famous tower that dominates the skyline. In short, it's one of those visits that will leave you with loads of photos for Instagram.
Oh, and don't forget to take a stroll around the Montcada Palace, because, since you're in Fraga, you have to take advantage and do some good tourism.
A Meeting, but with Flavor!
And well, what would a good plan be without its gastronomic part? Fraga has a cuisine that will leave you speechless, and never better said! Between all that bolillo, alpina and strolling, you have to try its typical dishes. Watch out for the “recao fragatino”, a typical dish with legumes that will recharge your batteries to carry on with the day. And if you like sweets, get ready to flip out with the “crespillos”, which are pure Aragonese sweet tradition.
You Can't Miss It
So, guys, if you're looking for a different plan, the Bobbin Lace Meeting in Fraga has it all! History, live art, tradition galore and, above all, an incredible atmosphere. See you on October 20, 2024 in Plaza España to spend a day that, I assure you, is going to be epic!
Take note: Fraga, bolillos and a lot of good vibes. Don't miss it, because later they will tell you about it and you will regret not having been there!
