Día de Reyes | Three Kings Day
The celebration known as “cabalgata” took place for the first time in Alcoy, in the province of Alicante, Spain, in 1866. This parade celebrates the traditions of the Three Wise Men, who brought gifts to baby Jesus in the days after his birth – Baltasar, Gaspar, and Melchor. In Spain, this holiday is celebrated with even more excitement than Christmas, as children receive gifts on the day of the Three Kings.
Whoever finds the king wins good fortune, they must pay for the bean for the next year’s roscón, and whoever finds the prize inside will share and celebrate together with their families after lunch. In the afternoon (and morning for breakfast), it is a tradition to have the famous Reyes de Roscón and open presents – just like Santa Claus. If they have been bad, they will find charcoal in their shoes, but if they have been good, they will find gifts in their shoes. They also leave water and drinks for their camels and turrones, polvorones. When the kings arrive home from the parade, they leave presents for the children and throw candy from large carriages. On the evening of January 5th, the cabalgata takes place in Spain, where people dress up as the Three Kings in long tunics and crowns. Nowadays, it is a festive tradition throughout the country.
