WHAT'S ON IN ANDALUCIA. Coming soon....

The big one this month is Carnaval, back in its rightful place after confusingly happening in March last year. With La Pepa 1812 celebrations – the bicentenary of Spain’s first constitution, written in Cadiz - bringing attention onto the city, this year’s Carnaval is likely to be crazier than ever.

On 28 February is Dia de Andalucia, with the green-and-white colours of the region’s flag visible everywhere.

This year February is leap year – the month has 29 days - so it’s the ideal opportunity to whisk your partner away for a romantic trip to Andalucia, and ask the Big Question.

Local traditional events. (See also this page of our events section.)
