Some traditions stay alive because people keep sharing them. On Saturday, 17 October 2026, from 6:00 pm, Xornes, in the municipality of Ponteceso, celebrates Intangible Cultural Heritage Day with a gathering devoted to Galician regueifa, a lively tradition of improvised oral poetry filled with wit, rhythm and humour.
Local regueifa performers will share their talent for creating verses on the spot, inviting audiences to experience a distinctive part of Galicia’s living cultural heritage. The event poster lists Antonio, Cadete, Calviño, Camuzas, Cotelo, Leonarda, Mandián, Suso and Verdías.
Whether you already know regueifa or are discovering it for the first time, come along for an afternoon celebrating spontaneous poetry, local voices and Galician culture. Join us in Xornes and experience this living tradition first-hand.
