Palamós, in Baix Empordà on the Costa Brava, held its annual Prawn Fair on 13 June 2026, according to the local council. The event centred on the town’s well-known prawn, a product closely tied to its coastal identity.

The fair included activities focused on the local delicacy, with photographs released by Palamós Town Council and photographer Laura Teixidor showing scenes from the day. The images also reflected community interest in the town’s fishing heritage.

The Palamós prawn is known for its flavour and quality, and it remains a recognised part of Catalan cuisine. Events like this give residents and visitors a chance to see how local seafood is presented and valued in the town.

Local food events also support producers and the fishing sector, while helping to keep traditional culinary practices visible. In Palamós, that role is closely linked to the wider appeal of the Costa Brava coast.
