April Fair

https://haveaircustoms.com/maqfnth Every Spring, the city of Seville throws a week-long party and close to a million people show up. The April Fair or Feria de Abril, began as a cattle trading fair in the mid 19th Century and over the years has evolved into a Spanish spectacle of flamenco, bullfighting and fun.

Some casetas belong to trade associations, some to groups of friends, and others to clubs or political parties.

Men often dress up in special Flamenco attire, as well. Many people visit the Fair Grounds at noon in order to catch the colorful horse and buggy parade in which one can easily spot famous movie stars, music performers, well-known politicians, etc., all in their best attire.
