Reyes Magos. ¡Felices Reyes! Día de los Reyes Magos - Kings' Day is a public holiday in Barcelona and Spain on 6th January every year. The 6th is the biggest Christmas gift giving day in Spain and the day when children open their Christmas presents.

On Día de los Reyes Magos Spanish and Catalan families enjoy a sweetbread Kings cake called 'Tortell de Reis' in Catalan language - 'Roscón de Reyes' in the Spanish language. The cake's name the 'Kings' ring.'

Roscón bakers hide a tiny toy or trinket and a fava bean inside the roscón cake. The person who finds the toy is King or Queen of the feast. The person who gets the fava bean has to buy the Tortell de Reis cake next year.

Most shops are closed on the 6th, but some stores might be open to start the January sales early.
