I just translated this article from the article on the Catalan Wikipedia, but my Catalan is nowhere near perfect, so it could do with some checking. — Celestianpower háblame 17:56, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
I believe that festival is a fairly close translation. Festival in English has a broad meaning, from large events involving millions of people, to small ones involving just a few. Another possibility would be to use 'tradition', i.e. 'The Castanyada is a Catalan tradition ...' where the following information would define the content of the tradition. I would still probably stick with 'festival' though. Djlloyd45 ( talk) 07:26, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
I'm not sure these ought to be included in this article, as - correct me if I'm wrong - they appear to be completely separate festivals, but just with similar themes. At the very least - if they are to stay - the article would need to be called something else ('Chestnut Festivals in the Iberian Peninsula' or something a bit more catchy perhaps...) What do people think? — Celestianpower háblame 16:19, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
The origin and the time of both festivals is practically the same. Nevertheless the name ethimology is more complicated in Galician, maybe a Celtic origin word. I think that they must be included in the same article, but the article name should be changed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.147.114.150 ( talk) 21:00, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
The Magosto is a holiday celebrated with samhain, it was to honor Bridgig (Brigida in Galician)-- Bretema7 ( talk) 01:18, 5 January 2014 (UTC)
The Magosto holiday is celebrated in Galicia, northern Portugal, Asturias and some provinces like Leon. Its much more relevant and popular than Castañada aswell. -- Sage78 ( User talk:Sage78) 15:13, 24 September 2017 (GMT)
Just read the article and it left me wondeirng when this is celebrated? Google says usually Nov 1st/All Saints Day? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jeremytarling ( talk • contribs) 17:06, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
The "magosto" means totally different things than "castanyada", they're totally different parties (they r not a party btw). Only eating chestnuts is similar. Pls make two pages. Garrote20 ( talk) 20:25, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
