===Spain=== {{Main|Falles}} In Spain, Saint Joseph's Day is their version of Father's Day, which is called ''El Dia del Padre''. In some parts of Spain it is celebrated as [[Falles]]. They feel that Saint Joseph is a good example of what a father figure should be like, which is why they connect these two days. Since Spain does correlate this day with Father's Day, it is tradition for children to cook their fathers breakfast or even give small gifts. It is a "meatless affair", because it occurs during the Lenten season. Some symbols to represent this day include Jesus holding carpenter tools, baby Jesus, and a staff with lilies. A few things to do on this day to celebrate are attending a special church service, visiting different cathedrals, joining [[Valencia]]'s Falla Festival, and exploring the city, museums and art galleries. The Falla Festival runs for 5 days and ends on 19 March in remembrance of Saint Joseph.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://publicholidays.es/st-josephs-day/|title=St Joseph's Day 2018 and 2019 β Public Holidays Spain|work=Public Holidays Spain|access-date=8 May 2017|language=en-US}}</ref>
