The title of Fiesta of International Tourist Interest is an honorary distinction that is given by the General Secretariat of Tourism of the Ministry of Industry, Trade and Tourism of the Government of Spain to the fiestas, festivals or events in Spain involving manifestations of cultural and popular tradition, with particular regard to their ethnic characteristics and special importance as international tourist attractions. This honorary title was established in 1979.

The Magdalena Festival is the main festivity of Castellón de la Plana, the capital city of the province of Castelló, in the Valencian Community, Spain. It commemorates the origins of the city, recalling the move of the city from the Hill of Mary Magdalene to the fertile coastal plain in 1251.
