Ciudad Rodrigo is converted into a spectacle
La Charrada
Is the biggest representation and expression of Salamancan folklore and it always coincides with the festival of Sábado Santo (Holy Saturday), also called Sábado de Gloria (Saturday of Glory).
The festivities are held in the Plaza Mayor, where folk groups gather from all over the Ciudad Rodrigo area, the province of Charra, and other points of Spain and Portugal. On this day every corner of Ciudad Rodrigo is converted into a spectacle, and it is not surprising to bump into people at every step dancing to the sound of pipes and showing off the colour of their clothes.
