The second Saturday after Easter Sunday, Sant Mateu is overtaken in the celebration of the festival of La Mare de Deu dels Angels, saint of the people, commemorating revelation of her image. It starts with the pilgrimage of the reeds from the Plaza Mayor to the shrine. From this moment, the festival moves to the mountain of the hermit. The bustle of the people, the devotion and tradition of the mass, the sharing of typical calderas and the Ball Pla in the great hall of the hostelry shapes an extremely important day in the cycle of festivities of Sant Mateu.
