The Patron Saints fiesta in honour of San Roque 2016 was held between the 6th and 16th of August in Blanca, Murcia, Spain.

One of the main events of the fiesta were the Bull Runs which drew many visitors from outside the community. The last day the Procession with the Statue of San Roque took place. The heavy statue was being carried around by the men of the community. The younger men were jumping in as the statue is a heavy burden. That is how traditions are being transferred from one generation to the next. The winners of the local beauty queen contests were also participating in the parade, followed by many locals.
