The city nativity scene<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Every Christmas, the municipal workforce sets up the traditional nativity scene<\/strong><\/a>, with large figures and a small garden, in different places around the city – this year it’s in the Pla\u00e7a del Rei. A big attraction for all ages.

The last day of the year is the day of the Home dels Nassos<\/strong><\/a>, the man with as many noses as there are days in the year – or at least, as many days as there are left!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 11am to 3pm he will be going round the streets of Tarragona with his pages<\/strong> and his musicians, who will provide the best way to end 2021.
