The Festa de l'Escudella de Castellterçol is a traditional festival celebrated in Castellterçol, Catalonia. It takes place on the Tuesday of Carnival, and it is believed to have originated in the 16th century, possibly as a way to prepare for the fasting of Lent.

During the festival, around thirty cauldrons of "escudella," a traditional Catalan soup, are cooked and distributed among the locals and visitors. The soup is prepared with ingredients such as beef, lean rib, botifarra (Catalan sausage), chicken, rice, and noodles. The festival is one of the oldest celebrations in the town and is known for its delicious and hearty soups. It is a popular event that attracts both locals and tourists, and it is a part of the Carnival season in Catalonia.

The festival also includes a traditional popular breakfast, thematic workshops, and the distribution of the escudella.
