"Lunes de Aguas"
Salamanca
Monday following Easter.
Monday April 21
The Spanish as we know need very little excuse for a festival- but a festival in Spain to welcome prostitutes into the city and a festival immediately after Easter is stretching things a bit.
Back in the day, King Felipe II banned prostitutes from the city of Salamanca during the Easter Religious events.
On the day after  Easter they were allowed back in and the local students in the 16c who must have been a pretty uncouth lot gathered at the outskirts of the city to welcome them back and help them over the river.
These days some how this has become a festival were the local people gather on the outskirts of the city for a huge picnic and eat local foodstuffs. This is good timing after all the abstinence of Lent and Easter. All the usual singing, dancing and daring do's which are an essential element of Spanish festivals.
