Fiestas this year

I walked the camino in 2007 and am planning another one this summer, leaving in two or three weeks. I really enjoyed the fiestas in Azofra and other places along the route. They really helped mix up the solitude and contemplative walking. Does anyone know when they're happening this year? Last time, I left Pamplona on the 16th of July, I think.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Each place has its own fiesta -- some manage two or three. My suggestion is to simply google placename fiesta-- I have not seen a comprehensive Camino fiesta list.
 
New Original Camino Gear Designed Especially with The Modern Peregrino In Mind!
The "fiesta" of sorts in Villafranca Montes de Oca (outskirts of Burgos) is in mid-September, and I believe the festival in Logrono is also in September. There is a national holiday on the weekend of Oct. 12 as well. That's about all I know. :)

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
