April Fair (Feria De Abril)
A fantastic week of partying, dancing, drinking and frivolity
An antedote to the somber processions and events of Semana Santa, the April Fair (Feria De Abril) is a fantastic week of partying amongst the brightly coloured tents temporarily housed in the El Real de la Feria area of the city. Note that many of the tents are 'chartered' by private companies, individuals and societies, but around 20 are open to the public and are the centre of the drinking, talking, dancing and partying that takes place over the April Fair week. During the day people drive around the site and the streets in horse & carts, women dress up in traditional flamenco costume and men dress in Andalucian farmer's suits. If you needed any more, there are also fairgrounds, bullfights and special activites and events at local restaurants (especially tapas!) and cafes to keep you entertained!
