The 2018 Gastronomic Fair is celebrated during the three weekends of the fair, in the participating establishments. Twelve restoration businesses participate in the proposal, which will be connected by means of a "trenet" that will carry out a circular route, taking customers from local to local so that they can enjoy the tastiest dishes and tapas and a special tasting menu at Feria , which will include as a common element the "pansa" or the orange.
The bars and restaurants that participate in the 2018 Gastronomic Fair are: Plaça de Bous Bar, Sendra Cafe Bar, Il Fratelli La Nonna, Rte La Parada Bar (Euro), Rte Valero, Ramis Hotel, Tasta'm, Rte Taurino, La Bar Xata, Bar la Andaluza, Lo de Salvador and Pizzeria Rabbit. From the Department of Tourism and Economic Promotion, a brochure of the Gastronomic Fair has been published indicating the participating restaurants on a map, with the menus offered by each one and the schedules of the trenet that connects them.
On the other hand, this Sunday 11 day, the traditional canine contest next to the Prado will also take place in the morning. During this first weekend the amusement fair will also begin, which, as in previous editions, will be placed again on the street Nacions Sense Estat.
