Honorary designation given to festivals or events held in Spain
The category of Fiesta of National Tourist Interest (Spanish: Fiestas de Interés Turístico Nacional, Basque: Interes Turistiko Nazionaleko Jaiak, Catalan: Festes d'Interès Turístic Nacional / Valencian: Festes d'Interés Turístic Nacional, Galician: Festas de Interese Turístico Nacional) in Spain is an honorary designation given by the General Secretariat of Tourism of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Tourism of the Government of Spain to fiestas, festivals or events held in Spain that offer real interest as national tourism attractions. This category was created in 1979 to adjust the new competences of the ministries in the transition.[1] Since 1965, and until 1979, there was only the declaration of Fiesta of Tourist Interest, and with the new reform the honorary designations were divided into three tiers: Festivals of International Tourist Interest, Festivals of National Tourist Interest and Festivals of Tourist Interest.
After five years holding this distinction, events with a wide international projection that meet certain requirements,[2] may be elevated to the higher distinction of Fiesta of International Tourist Interest.
