Where to visit on Three Kings Day?

We have never been in Spain on this day before, can anyone tell us where would be a good place to visit and what is going on in this area to celebrate? Thanks

One of the best places near here is in Torrevieja. The 3 Kings arrive at the port at 1700 on 5th January and go to the Corazon church where they have an opening ceremony. They then parade through the main streets along Ramon Galud and finish at the Inmaculada Church in the centre of town. Lots of throwing of sweets to the crowd and so on.
Every town around will have a parade but the Torrevieja one is a big one.

I was just writing a topic about where some of the local Three Kings Parades are, when your question came in. As marcliffe says the Torrevieja parade is no doubt the biggest local celebration and his description is also better than my, long-winded, Spanish translated one from the Town Hall :roll: :lol: but between us I think it says it all.

For that one and a few of the others click on this topic:
The Three Kings celebrations New Year 2015

Enjoy the spectacular parades everyone - Wish I was there!
