Info
The first weekend in August, San Martín de Luiña becomes a great cowboy festival, as its Cowboy Market is one of the great events of the Asturian summer in the western region. Numerous activities are organised around this market, including outings to the "brañas vaqueiras", parades, chigre singing, bagpipe groups, etc.
There is no lack of time for the traditional rural cowboy culture of the area, and for this reason it is possible to see buelles and country carts, or the re-enactment of a cowboy wedding. Not forgetting the typical handicrafts or the vaqueiro menus that can be tasted in the restaurants of the area. And of course, there are always activities for children.
In short, it is a tribute to the cowboy culture and the Asturian rural world in the privileged setting of San Martín de Luiña. The Mercado Vaqueiro will bring you closer to a whole era and allow you to spend a different kind of leisure time.
