Spanish Festivals

Have you heard of the spanish festivals but have yet to experience one for yourself? If so, why not check out the content in this article - which will indeed be about spanish festivals. i hope you enjoy reading this spanish festivals guide. 

Why not take a look at a spanish festivals calendar - to see which festivals exist all around. Let's start in january. In january you have the festividad de san Sebastian - in which is celebrated the capture of the city of San Sebastian; by Lord Wellington in 1812.

In february, when it comes to spanish festivals, you have the seville tapas fair (which, indeed, you are going to have to go to the town of Sevilla to experience this one of the spanish festivals). Here, you will get a chance to taste some of the spanish snacks. Actually, Sevilla is where the tapas come from -- as it's the world capital of tapas. A part of this one of the spanish festivals actually is held on other places in the country - including the Cadiz, Tenerife, Sitges and Barcelona carnivals. In these carnivals, which are huge, people wear fancy costumes and have a good dancing time.

In march you have the festival de jerez to visit. Flamenco, notoriously spanish, is what is being celebrated here - including some of the best performers in the country. In valencia you have the fallas de san josé. These are big parties on the streets -- where fireworks fire up the night every night. Also, the fallas - which are big papier-mache like things - are being put on fire.

If you're going in April, you might want to check out the semana week. It's the holy week. If you are in either seville, Granada, Cordoba or malage the festivals will be the most amazing - the semana week festivals - but are also good in other places. Also, in Andalucia, this festival is the absolute highlight of the year - in which big religious floats are being carried by parish members. Moros y Cristianos, a festival held in Alcoy, Aliante -- in which there are mock fights being held between the Christians and the Moors. If you're in Sevilla, two weeks past easter, you have the biggest party in spain - the seville april fairi (La Feria de Abril).

I hope you were informed about spanish festivals as much as you wanted, here - and that perhaps I inspired you to want to go visit some of the spanish festivals.
