Those looking for a more traditional Christmas, from December 16, 2023 to January 7, 2024, have the opportunity to visit the exhibition of nativity dioramas organized by Grup Pessebrista de Sitges. This year marks the 800th anniversary and this exhibition will be on display at Palau del Rei Moro, a Gothic building that is part of the architectural heritage of Catalonia. In this exhibition you can see figures sculpted by various artists who follow, mostly, the style of the school of Barcelona. In addition, as a result of this activity there is also a tour of nativity scenes, where you can admire different scenes prepared with this type of figures. The winners will be announced on January 14 at 12 pm at the "Espai Cultural de Pere Stämpfli".

On the other hand, a classic event that cannot be missed is "Els Pastorets de Sitges", a theatrical and musical performance typical of Christmas in Catalonia. Actors, technicians and musicians present a play that offers 60 minutes of live music, singing and dancing. Those interested can come to the Casino Prado Suburense to enjoy some of the performances that will take place on December 23 at 18:30 pm and December 28 at 21:30 pm. Tickets can be purchased on their official website for a price of 10€.

If you come to spend Christmas in Sitges with your family, there are also several activities designed for the little ones in the house.

One of them is "La fiesta del Tió", held on December 16 from 5 to 8 pm at the Sitges Town Hall, where children will be able to do "caga tió" to receive gifts and also enjoy other games.

Finally, it is worth mentioning the visit of the Three Wise Men to Sitges:

On January 3 is when the royal pages arrive in the city. They will be at the Mercat Vell to collect the letters that children write to Their Majesties of the Orient to ask for their gifts. Finally, on January 5, it's the turn of the Three Wise Men's parade in Sitges, in which Melchior, Gaspar and Balthazar will walk the streets with their helpers to greet all those who come out to greet them. The departure will be from La Fragata at 5 pm, continuing along Passeig de la Ribera until reaching the Town Hall Square.
