I like the feria de El Colorado, because there is live music, including more modern music (e.g. salsa, mergengue, bachata, cha cha cha, rock n’ roll, etc.) and and sufficient space for dancing and because it is rural with cowboy (ie. vaquero) horse riding competitions, competititions for horse drawn carriages, an exhibition of birds of prey and prizes for the most beautiful vegetables and fruits. I also like that the tents (i.e. casetas) are in an area with pine trees. The casetas at the feria de sanlucar were tiny and there was not enough space for dancing in the casetas and hardly any casetas with live music. We will see if we meet the amigos del baile de conil again at the feria de el colorado.
Hi Georg,
I also know the «feria del Colorado» and your description is superb!!
Thanks a lot for your detailed review 🙂 please keep posting whenever you can / feel, really appreciated.
Cheers
The last time that I went to the feria de sanlucar it was mostly along both sides of the Avenida Calzada Duquesa Isabel from the mercado the abastos (near Bodegas Hidalgo La Gitana) until the beach (playa). As I already mentioned the tents (casetas) were very small, so there was very little space for dancing in the casetas. An advantage is that the feria location is easy to find, because it is in a central, well known part of Sanlucar. The feria de el Colorado is near the Carretera Barrio Nuevo near the football field (campo de futbol) with venta Melchor and venta El Colorado on the opposite side. The Feria de Chiclana is a very big feria with big tents and a large choice of food and entertainment for kids and also tents with live music and some space for dancing for adults (e.g. sevillanas, etc.). The feria location (recinto ferial) is on the outskirts of the city downstream on the right bank of the river Iro behind the brigde VII Centenario (Ponte VII Centenario). I remember that it was not easy to find space for parking the car, because Chiclana is a big city and because the feria is quite big and attracts a lot of people who come by car. It is a good opportunity to drink fino wine from Chiclana at the Feria beause Chiclana is part of the production zone for sherry wines. The feria Location is quite far from the carretera that runs from Cadiz to Conil, so one should plan some time to cross through the city or to drive around the city and to be stuck in a traffic jam.
Hi Georg,
Again and again tons of value in your comment!
Thanks a lot for your tips, I owe you several beers 😉
@Alvaro: You can buy several finos for me at the feria de primavera de El Colorado, if you also go to the feria this year 🙂 I am more of a fino drinker than a beer drinker at ferias.
Got it, lets go for finos then, ping me by email before the feria and we will arrange a meeting 🙂 cheers
OK. I will contact you by e-mail before the feria. If I remember correctly, the caseta of the asocation de empresarios de conil usually had good live Music later in the evening. They usually sell solear at the feria de primavera de El Colorado. Solearsenos, jaja.
Brilliant, see u there! 🙂
