The Revetlla/Party of Sant Joan
Revetlles are the parties which liven up the few hours of darkness from sunset on the 23rd to sunrise on the 24th June, which is the day of Saint Joan. On the night of the 23rd June, Catalan villages and cities celebrate the “revetlla” of Saint Joan, who we know as Saint John the Baptist, and welcome the arrival of summer. It is the longest day of the year, and is wrapped in magic, symbols and legends. Saint Joan is a night of discovery. The 23rd June is the summer solstice, when the sun is at the highest point it ever reaches in the sky. In the celebrations of Saint Joan the “astre rei”, the king of the stars, is venerated as a symbol of fertility and richness, while lighting bonfires is an attempt to replace the strength that it is losing. Fire, the mysteries of Nature, food, songs, sayings, dance, remedies; everything involved in the celebration of Saint Joan, is part of the transformation, where what is present in our everyday lives take on a new meaning.
