MAGNA CELEBRATIO – THE ROMAN FESTIVAL OF BADALONA
This year we celebrate the twentieth edition of our Roman Festival, the Magna Celebratio, which has been organized by the Museum of Badalona since 2005, with the exception of 2020, when it did not take place due to Covid-19. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the first Magna, this year’s edition will be special and will be dedicated, precisely, to celebrations.
In Roman times, all kinds of festivals were celebrated, most of them related to the calendar and the worship of the gods; but also commemorative of great military feats, in honor of the rulers, as well as civil and family ceremonies.
We invite you, therefore, to a special Magna Celebratio that will take us, as every year, to remember our Roman past, to visit, once again, the archaeological spaces of the Museum of Badalona, and to get to know the culture of Roman society up close with conferences, workshops, demonstrations and historical recreation shows.

PAST EDITIONS
The year 2005 in occasion of the 50th anniversary of the creation of the Museum of Badalona, we celebrated the I Magna Celebratio with the aim to claim and announce the Roman past of the city.
With the years, the festival has gone cementing giving a leadership to the historical reenactment and to the recreations of the daily life of our Roman ancestors.
