The Tamborrada in Gandía (Gandia) is one of the most powerful and atmospheric events marking the start of Semana Santa (Holy Week). As the parade begins, the city’s historic streets fill with the deep, echoing sound of drums, performed by members of local brotherhoods dressed in traditional robes or Roman-style attire.
Hundreds of drummers play in synchrony, creating a steady, thunderous rhythm that reflects both mourning and devotion during the Easter period.

More than just a performance, the Tamborrada is a deeply rooted tradition that brings the community together and signals the emotional beginning of Gandía’s Semana Santa celebrations.
