The celebration happens in August and is an interesting spin on the other traditional summer festivals in Madrid like San Isidro, San Cayetano, and La Paloma. While those celebrations adhere to Madrileño traditions, the San Lorenzo festival reflects the young, alternative, and multicultural nature of Lavapiés.
