Ferias and Festivals

The Sierras of Aracena and Peaks of Aroche are dotted with tiny white washed villages and towns, typical of Andalusia.

Each town and village fiercely maintains its own traditions and because they tend to be staggered throughout the year, it is easy to enjoy virtually all of them.

Many of the fiestas have religious significance but can be enjoyed by all as truly cultural celebrations of traditional dance and song.

Whether it be a Romeria (religious pilgrimage), a bullfight, local village fiesta, celebration of local product or Semana Santa, the ferias and festivals of the region are the purest display of everything that is intrinsically "Andalus" - they are the window to the soul of Southern Spain.
