The feast of Senior San Roqueis a lively and valued event that unites the neighbourhood in jubilant harmony. With deeply ingrained religious origins, the feast honours San Roque, the city's patron saint, with a vibrant fusion of ceremonial celebrations. Processions fill the streets as a beautifully decorated figure of the saint is carried through them, accompanied by impassioned prayers and age-old chants. A festive mood is created by decorative buntings, vivacious music, and scrumptious regional cuisine and extends to fairs, dances, and cultural performances. In addition to the festivities, the feast is a time for families and friends to get together, establishing a strong feeling of community and camaraderie and conserving a rich tradition for future generations.

The Senior San Roque Fiesta is a customary celebration that honours Saint Roch, also known as San Roque, a Christian saint who is revered for warding off plagues and illnesses. This festival frequently involves feasting, music, dance, religious processions, and other cultural activities. Some communities, especially those who have a great devotion to Saint Roch, view it as a major occasion.

In addition to "Sant Roc" in Catalan, "San Roque" in Spanish (including in former Spanish colonial territories like the Philippines), and "San Rocco" in Italian, Saint Roch is also known as "So Roque" in Portuguese, "Sant Roc" in Catalan, and "San Roque" in Spanish.
