FIESTAS AND FESTIVALS

In this Blog Post, I am going to keep a running list of what Fiestas and Festivals are on throughout the year, as the dates do not vary much and this means that by the time this blog is a year old, we will have a running archive of whats on, for next year.
Often the programmes do not come out till just before, so until I can get all the information will just put a link to a spanish site which gives last years programme. This post will be permanently listed on the site under "posts to keep your eye on for updates"
