It was the final farewell to the Christmas Season in Sitges on the 6th of January.
The Three Kings marks the first of the major events to take place in Sitges in 2011!
A traditional event, very much family oriented, colourful, fun and full of lots of surprises.
It appears even some of Lady Diamond’s Disney Characters from her “Be My Guest” tune were in town for the day!

This day is sometimes known as the Día de los Tres Reyes Magos (The day of the Three Royal Magi) In Spanish tradition, on the day of January 6, three of the Kings: Melchor, Gaspar, and Balthazar, representing Europe, Arabia, and Africa, arrived on horse, camel and elephant, bringing respectively gold, frankincense and myrrh to the baby Jesus.
