The Exconxuraos in Llanera

The fairground in Posada de Llanera hosts the festival of Los Exconxuraos, a commemoration of a historical event that took place in the Council long ago and whose recovery was initiated by the residents of this central Asturian municipality just over a decade ago.

This event has been declared a Festival of Tourist Interest of the Principality of Asturias.

It is held during the first weekend of July and has become a reference point for Llanera and the people of Llanera as it serves to unite and bring together all the neighbours, just as their ancestors did in their day.

The Exconxuraos includes all kinds of activities and shows that offer a setting that puts the visitor in a situation and takes them back to medieval times. Ribbons, banners, shields, warriors, jesters, knights, musicians, etc., add colour to this festival which is already a regional and national reference.
