October arrives in Palencia with that crisp breeze that calls for jackets… and a packed calendar. If you thought the city slows down once summer ends, think again. Palencia in autumn is more alive than ever: new initiatives, charity events, a cultural explosion, urban improvements, and an atmosphere you only get in a small city that thinks big. And when you stay at Hotel Castilla Vieja, right in the heart of the city, you won’t miss a thing.

Steps That Make a Difference: A Run for a Good Cause

The month kicks off with one of Palencia’s most beloved events: the Solidarity March and Run Against Cancer, taking place on 5th October. Whether you run, walk, or stop to snap a few photos, it’s all about joining the community, supporting a great cause, and enjoying the city from the pavement—commemorative T-shirt included, of course.

Culture Takes Centre Stage at Teatro Ortega

If comfy seats are more your style than trainers, Teatro Ortega has an autumn programme that’s not to be missed. From magic shows to tribute concerts that will transport you back to the 90s, from laugh-out-loud comedy to family favourites like The Magic of Elsa and Anna, there’s something on stage for every mood. October in Palencia is best enjoyed with applause echoing around you.

A City in Motion: Urban Improvements for All

Palencia isn’t just buzzing with events—it’s undergoing a proper seasonal makeover. Public spaces are being transformed with upgrades to green areas and playgrounds. The Isabel II Park is getting a new, modern, accessible playground, while Parque de la Constitución and Miguel de Unamuno’s neighbourhood are also seeing improvements. Even Plaza del Virrey Velasco, still under works, is shaping up to look its best very soon. Who said Palencia doesn’t dress up for autumn?
