El Falla en Sevilla Carnival Extravaganza
2026-06-28 01:10 UTC
El Falla en Sevilla erupts March 6-7 at Fibes, channeling Cádiz Carnival’s irreverent spirit with 68 chirigotas (satirical choirs) delivering 100+ hours of cuplés (witty skits) mocking politicians and pop culture—costumed troupes in feathered hats parade Fibes’ halls, blending comparsas with Sevilla’s flamenco flair for 81,000 revelers over 13 editions. Born as Spain’s premier inland carnival post-Cádiz COAC, it’s a riot of laughter and coplas (verses); expect murgas (masks) roasting 2026 headlines. Fibes’ acoustics amplify the joy—pair with pescaíto frito and rebujitos (sherry-lemonade). This antidote to Semana Santa’s solemnity revives winter’s wit.
