Christmas Eve, the families in Spain gather for a great meal and many families visit the church for Christmas Mass. Typical dishes on the Christmas table will include roast lamb or suckling pig, seafood, cheese, ham and pate. Dinner starts late, around 10 pm. and will be enjoyed for hours. While in many parts of Europe, Santa Claus brings gifts on Christmas Eve or early on Christmas Day, in Spain the Three Wise Men come with gifts on January 6.
New Year’s Eve, people in Spain look at the clock tower in the central square of Madrid, the ”Puerta del Sol”, live or on television. In the whole country it´s a tradition to eat twelve grapes: one for each clock hit at midnight for good luck for the new year.
The Three Wise Men. January 6 is the last day of the Christmas holidays. Early in the morning, the children will wake up to find the gifts that the Three Wise Men have left during the night. All the towns prepare their own parades with music and decorated carriages from where the dressed up ”Wise Men” throw toys and sweets to the public. Don´t miss trying the typical dessert ”Roscón de Reyes”.
