We walk past the site for the Feria de Abril everyday and we're starting to see the tents being assembled all over the site. It's a shame we'll just miss what Lonely Planet describes as one of the "World’s best festivals: Feria de Abril
Location: El Real de la Feria, Seville, Spain
Dates: Two weeks after Semana Santa (the week leading up to Easter Sunday)
Level of Participation: 3 – you won’t be able to get into most casetas, but there are enough public tents to compensate
A jolly postscript to sombre Semana Santa, the Feria de Abril is the biggest and most colourful of all Andalucía’s ferias (festivals). If the name suggests pie bake-offs and apple bobbing, it’s misleading, for the Feria de Abril promises a week of full-blown partying. Southwest of the city centre, the open area of El Real de la Feria morphs into a temporary tent city containing around 1000 casetas (brightly striped tents), and such is the demand for tents, there’s talk of moving the fair to a larger space at the Expo ’92 site."
