Guadix Fair and Celebrations
Every
September, Guadix dresses up to carry out its summer celebrations, bringing
summer time to an end and beginning a new period. These are some of the offers
of this summer celebrations: fairground rides, concerts, stage plays,
children’s activities, stands, bars, tapas, churros with chocolate and
well-elaborated and prestigious pyromusic shows in the pyrotechnic workshop of the Caves of Guadix.
This
celebration takes place by the end of August and early September, although it
was celebrated originally at the end of September. It was like a cattle fair
and coincided with San Miguel celebration, closing the fruits and vegetables
season of the Guadix meadow.
Of
special interest is the “Noon Fair”,
which joins the traditional “Night Fair”. The stands placed in the exhibition
site offers some samples of the traditional Guadix dishes, music and water
steam baths to cool party people off. Young and old people, families, friends
and visitors enjoy from the noon to the dawn in a festive atmosphere which is
present in each corner of Guadix.
