The big festivities of La Bañeza are held during the month of August, with duration of approximately ten days in honour of Our Lady of the Assumption and San Roque.

Many activities are programmed : sports, recreational and cultural activities for children, young people and adults: concerts and open-air dances, theatre, fairs, giants and big-heads, a medieval market, regional dances, becerradas (bullfights with calves) and many more.

Among all these activities one is especially noteworthy, La Bañeza Grand Prix, the only motorcycle race in Spain that is run entirely in a street circuit.
