Feria de San Juan Jaén

Known as the 'Little Fair' of Jaén (compared to the October San Lucas fair), the Feria de San Juan celebrates the summer solstice with a lively programme of events. The festivities include concerts, children's workshops, and traditional dances at the fairground. A highlight is the 'Noche de San Juan' on June 23rd, where traditional bonfires are lit to welcome the summer. The fairground comes alive with attractions and 'casetas' offering local food and drink. It is a period of high spirits and community bonding, providing a perfect introduction to the Andalusian summer season with its warm nights and festive outdoor culture.
