For those who need an introduction, Semana Santa or the Holy week is a 8-day lasting festivity to celebrate what we call Easter. During this time the city streets are almost constantly filled with processions  of richly filled floats with Jesus and Mary statues, accompanied by Nazarenos (see picture) and shrill brass bands.

The celebrations take place all over Spain, but Sevilla is the most popular city to experience the Semana Santa. This year, it will take place from the 20-27 march.

Todos los Santos: All Saints' Day

Keep the first and the second of November free in your agenda! This date is the date of the famous “Fiesta Todos los Santos”, the All Saints’ Day.

This year, the Spanish people will be 3 days straight off, that’s why this year...
