The mix of locals and foreigners has not changed from last year’s: (45% Spanish, 55% foreigners). However the mix in age...
There were a number of recent threads asking how busy the CF was at present. I was advised in the Pilgrims Office in St Jean this afternoon that they are currently seeing around 240 Pilgrims daily.

Here's the number per month of all the pilgrims who went to the pilgrims's office in SJPdP in 2015.

It means the pilgrims who started there as well as the ones who arrived there. The real numbers may be a little higher...
The number of pilgrims in June 2016 was 3,155 more than last year, and 5,322 more than the Holy Year in 2010. If the two-day average for July holds, July will be about 5,000 more than last year and about 7,000 more than the Holy Year.
I suggest adjusting bed-finding strategies accordingly! :)
I think we are all aware that the amount and quality of information on this forum is phenomenal.

It appeared in the first couple of months of the 2014 that due to persistent bad weather numbers the number of...

January to April 2014 arrivals at Santiago de Compostela Pilgrims’ Office
During this year’s first 4months, 22’354 people registered at the Camino pilgrims’ office in Santiago de Compostela. This represents an overall...
I had read that in any given year, only 15% of those that embark on the Pilgrimage actually complete it. Or at least that only 15% receive a Compostela.
That seems like a very low figure, so I am curious to know if there is a place that I might get these figures. I have seen in the forum...
