There’s loads going on this summer in the Municipality of Manilva which includes Sabinillas, Duquesa, Castillo as well as Manilva village itself.
There’s activities for the young and old, active and lazy (maybe I should say people who want to relax, as lazy sounds a bit rude!!), resident or holiday maker. Fiestas, concerts, fairs, dinners, markets…. certainly enough to keep everyone amused.
Below is a list of events. I’ll blog more details as we get nearer to some of the events. Remember in Spain, not much runs to time especially on the summer….
