A little background
he origins of the Pascua Craft Fair date back to the late 19th century, when farmers and artisans from the region would gather in the town of Daganzo de Arriba to trade and sell their goods. As in so many other municipalities in Madrid, the itinerant trade emerged in connection with the agricultural calendar and livestock fairs, establishing itself over the generations as one of the town’s most important social and economic gatherings.
With the arrival of the 20th century and the economic transformation of rural areas, the occasional market in Daganzo de Arriba evolved: it gave way to large textile and footwear stalls, incorporated vendors from other provinces, and became professionalized under municipal regulations. Many of today’s vendors are third- or fourth-generation members of families who have been attending this event for decades, maintaining a direct connection to the town’s commercial fabric.
Today, the Pascua Craft Fair maintains that popular essence while adapting to new trends: organic products, contemporary crafts, local cuisine, and a close relationship with consumers that large shopping centers cannot offer. The city council and the vendors’ association work together to preserve its traditional character in the heart of Daganzo de Arriba.
