What do you mean? If there is something like an yearly event? If this is the case yes there is.
There is the Prince of Viana awards in the summer, the meeting with the patronages with the Prince of Asturias foundation, the Prince of Asturias Awards, the National Day, the Spanish Army Day, the Pascua Militar and some others that I don't recall right now.

I think it is funny that poor Felipe was wearing a tie to go shopping! Was he angry at the photographer in that picture of him pointing out of the car?

The Princess of Asturias is totally dedicated in taking care of her daughter. For that reason, this Christmas the Princes have not gone to any of the many suppers their friends have organized. The only thing they did not miss was the birthday of Doña Letizia’s father, celebrated with a lunch some days before his birthday, since it agrees with Christmas Eve (surely he was named Jesus for that reason). Today the Princes return to Madrid after their holidays in Lanzarote.

Moratinos will represent to Spain in 20 anniversary of the establishment of relations with Israel
(...)
Other acts it will take place throughout the present year both in Israel and in Spain, and they will include festivals of cinema, concerts, exhibitions and public ceremonies, in some of which the members' presence of the Royal Household is foreseen.
Also there has been programmed a visit of the Princes of Asturias to Israel, which might take place in May. Though initially there had been thought that Don Felipe and Dona Letizia might have come to Israel in January, soon the idea discarded, especially because the country thinks in a pre-electoral period that it will conclude at the end of March.

The "roscon de reyes" is a variation of the French "Gateau des Rois" (in Portugal we also have the “bolo-rei”) that has appeared in the court of Luis XIV, to honour the Three Wise Men. Its design remembers a crown and the crystallized fruits, almonds and nuts represent the precious stones that decorate the crown. In Portugal, it’s usually put a broad bean inside it and tradition says that the person that receives the slice with the broad bean in it has to offer the "bolo-rei" in the following year... I'm not sure if that also happens in Spain... Anyway, it's the most traditional cake, during the Christmas season.

From www.lavanguardia.es:
Princess Letizia prepares her return at work for February
16/01/2006 MADRID
The princess of Asturias is already preparing her return to work, which will happen in the first days of February. After three months of maternal license and despite the fact that she will continue breastfeeding her daughter, Doña Letizia will be incorporated next month to the official acts. Her first activity after the birth of the infanta Leonor will be, most certainly, to accompany the Prince in the inauguration of the headquarters of the Cervantes Institute in Sofía (Bulgaria), that will take place February 8.
Doña Letizia hasn't gone to any official act since last November 23, day in which she attended the commemoration of the 30 years of reign of the King that was celebrated in the royal palace of Madrid. It was a symbolic presence since, with permission of Don Juan Carlos, the Princess went away after the greetings to the authorities to return to her residence of the Zarzuela and to attend her daughter. Her last official act before the labor was the parade of October 12.
Although the Princess is not held by a labor regulation, she has taken three months of maternity leave, although for some weeks already she's aware of the activities planned from February an on. In the end of this week, the prince Felipe will travel to Latin America to attend the possession of the elected presidents of Bolivia and Honduras, and between the two of them he will carry out a brief visit to El Salvador. This travel calendar will impede that Don Felipe would be able to be present at the christening of the first born son of the crown princes of Denmark, that will take place in Copenhagen next Saturday. Don Felipe is one of the godfathers of the boy, but he has excused his presence due to his trip to Bolivia. Since years ago, the Prince represents the Spanish State in the possesions of the Latin-American presidents, since one of the objectives of the Spanish foreign policy is the unconditional support to the democratic processes of that zone, punished during years with totalitarian governments. Doña Letizia will not accompany him in the trip, but is predicted that she'll be with him in the next trip, that will have as destiny the capital of Bulgaria.
