Osuna Fair is a festival which takes place in May and was declared to be a National Tourist Interest since 2008 by the Regional Ministry of Tourism, Commerce and Sport. It contributes to the development of the Andalusia traditional values and to promoting tourism in this town.
The bicentenary fair of May is celebrated in mid-May. The grand opening begins every year with “El Alumbrao” (official lighting), delighting the visitors with its innovative design.
Among the activities and events, we emphasize the horse ride that is held on Friday, starting from the majestic San Pedro St. until the “Real de la Feria”. Their equestrian shows also deserve to be mentioned.
One of the most important events that take place during the fair is the Bulfighting Fair, bringing together numerous personalities of the bullfighting world, attending each year some of the best bullfighters and cattles.
The fairground has the characteristics needed to enjoy the friendly atmosphere of those days. It is comprised of more than 30 “casetas”, including the “Caseta Municipal” where many concerts take place, moreover, we can highlight its numerous streets, such as “Bulería”, “Seguirilla”, “Peteneras”, “Alegrías” o “Soleá”.
Finally, we cannot forget the so-called “calle del infierno”, where you can enjoy numerous and thrilling attractions.
The Town Council of Osuna provides a bus service during those days to all the inhabitants and visitors so that they can enjoy the fair in an easy and comfortable way.
