Terra de Trobadors Festival 2026: experience the Middle Ages on the Costa Brava
From September 11 to 13, 2026, Castelló d'Empúries hosts the 34th edition of the Terra de Trobadors Festival, a must-see event for lovers of history and medieval culture. This event, declared of Tourist Interest, transforms the old town into a genuine journey back to the 13th century.
The big novelty of 2026: Guillem Escarrer
This year's edition pays tribute to Guillem Escarrer (1266-1321), a knight born in Castelló d'Empúries who served the Kingdom of Naples. The highlight will be the premiere of "El Romanç de Guillem Escarrer", a large-scale musical and theatrical show created by the company Novum Organum.
