Yes I did. And I'm going again this year

Sitges is a great place to visit anyway, but the festival adds an extra note to the place. Aside from the holidaymakers, it draws in big crowds of Spanish people - particularly younger people. The parades are something else - fireworks going off in narrow streets. The big fireworks display on one of the evenings is a real draw - the promenade and the main beaches facing the church are packed. We joined a couple of friends on the beach with a bottle of Cava and some plastic cups. The atmosphere was just great.

As you can tell, I'd recommend it!
