Monday, November 9, 2026.- The 78th edition of the traditional Diada Montserratina of cycling was celebrated this Sunday morning at l'Abadia de Montserrat, where more than three thousand people from across Catalonia gathered in fellowship to make their pilgrimage march to the monastery.

Participants were received by the prior of Montserrat, Br. Jordi Puigdevall, who blessed all those present. Furthermore,the Federació Catalana de Ciclisme participated by making an offering to the Mare de Déu de Montserrat.

La Diada Montserratina is a non-competitive sports initiative inviting Catalan cyclists to share their passion in a place as iconic as Montserrat, the finish point for many cycling routes.

The first edition of this cycle-touring gathering dates back to 1948 and was established as a votive act to the Mare de Déu by the Club Esportiu Ebre. Today, it is one more cycle ride that, established in the Catalan cycling calendar, winds its way up to the foot of the Monestir de Montserrat.
