Your Road Trips Foodies supposes that those who’ve dined mostly on sardines for 40 days welcome the end of Lent — but no one does it with more flair than the residents of Murcia, Spain.
Here, the Entierro de la Sardina — the Burial of the Sardine — occasions all sorts of celebration, including a parade, in a festival that dates back to 1851.
This year’s dates are April 21, 22 and 23, 2017.
Here’s a video about the 2013 festival:
