Virtual Artisan Village
Hondón de las Nieves (Alicante)
9 and 10 August
Arts and Crafts Fair
This year we offer again many workshops and craft demonstrations. On Friday the juggler closes the fair with a fire show and both days a magician will walk around the fair astonishing the public with his tricks and pranks and will do a great magic show on Saturday night.
It is the eighth time that we will set up our arts and crafts stalls in the center of this village. We open on Friday from 7 pm until one in the morning, and on Saturday from 7 pm until midnight, when the famous correfocs (fire procession) starts.
