A whole summer
of celebration
The Town Hall of Alhama de Almería has unveiled the official programme of the 2026 Summer Fair & Festivities. Almost three months of activities, opening on Friday 3 July with the 5th "Cecilio Vargas López" Futsal Tournament and closing on Sunday 27 September with the 6th Bobbin Lace Makers Gathering.
The heart of the fair beats from Thursday 23 to Sunday 26 July: opening rocket salvo, float parade, traditional fireworks display, verbenas on Plaza de España — with Mecamela's tribute to Camela, the Guerreras K-POP concert and comedian Alvarito —, the Feria del Mediodía in the Zona de la Cascada and the Caseta Joven open until the early hours.
Sign-ups for trips and limited-capacity activities are handled at the Alhama de Almería Town Hall.
