09/04/2024

The eagerly awaited Fuengirola International Countries Fair, formerly known as the Town Fair, is making a grand return on Wednesday 1 May 2024 with its spectacular opening parade through the streets of Fuengirola! This edition promises to be a five-day celebration, culminating on Sunday 5 May 2024. Stay tuned as we tell you all about it in today's blog!

About the Fuengirola International Countries Fair

The Fuengirola International Countries Fair is well known throughout Spain and Europe, as it is one of the largest events held in Fuengirola. It is a meeting point for different countries and cultures from around the world. It is held at the Fuengirola fairgrounds, and in each booth, you will find a different country where you can enjoy its gastronomy, customs, and culture... all in one place!

With continuous hours from 13:00 to 04:00, this year's fair has a slight change in its schedule. On Wednesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays, music in the booths will stop at 02:00 to ensure the peaceful rest of local residents.

Every day, there will be gastronomy, crafts, and live folk performances from different countries in their respective booths and at the Fuengirola Fairgrounds, and all for free.

This Year's News

One of the exciting news for this year is the return of participation from 33 countries. With the Coordination Centre moving to the Palacio de la Paz, a new country joins the cast: Lebanon, marking its debut in the history of the Fuengirola International Countries Fair. Although we will miss the participation of Chile, we welcome back Italy, Senegal, and Sweden, adding diversity and cultural richness to the fair. Are you ready to go around the world in five days?

Don't Miss the Parade!

The colourful and vibrant parade is scheduled for Wednesday 1 May, starting at 11:30 from the Town Hall Square. It will feature folk groups representing the participating countries of the FIP 2024, offering a fantastic opportunity to experience the world's cultural diversity right here in Fuengirola.
