Festival in which the arrival of spring is celebrated every year in the Praza da Ferrería. Having a good harvest was essential to preserve the annual food supply, which is why they are celebrated at the time of the blooming of spring, not when it begins.

In the case of Pontevedra, figurative maios are made, “conical in shape and decorated with a crown”, around which boys and girls sing verses accompanied by the percussion of sticks.
