The Correllengua (Eastern Catalan: [korəˈʎeŋɡwə], Western Catalan: [koreˈʎeŋɡwa]) is a campaign that's held annually in theCatalan Countries. Created in 1993 by cultural Catalan association Coordinadora d'Associacions per la Llengua Catalana(CAL), it has the aim of promoting the use of Catalan language. Inspired by the Basque Korrika, the Correllengua is a series of celebrations, street dances, cultural acts and fanfare of all kinds (such as Correfoc) in order to spread the Catalan language.
