Día de los Reyes Magos
Epiphany, the main gift-giving holiday for children in Spain and Latin America, with Three Kings parades and roscón de Reyes.
Día de los Reyes Magos, or Three Kings’ Day, is celebrated on January 6th each year in Spain and many Latin American countries. It marks the culmination of the Christmas season and is the day when children traditionally receive their main gifts, similar to Christmas Day in other cultures. The celebration commemorates the arrival of the Three Wise Men—Melchior, Gaspar, and Baltasar—who brought gifts to the baby Jesus.
One of the most anticipated events is the Cabalgata de los Reyes Magos, a colorful parade that takes place on the evening of January 5th. In this parade, the Three Kings ride on elaborate floats, throwing candies and small gifts to the children lining the streets. The next morning, children wake up to find presents left by the Reyes Magos in their shoes, which they have placed by the window or under the Christmas tree the night before. A traditional food is the roscón de Reyes, a sweet bread shaped like a ring, often decorated with candied fruits and filled with cream or chocolate. Inside the bread, there is a small figurine of a king and a bean. Whoever finds the figurine is crowned king or queen for the day, while the one who finds the bean has to pay for the roscón.
