Virtual Artisan Village
San Fulgencio (Alicante)
18, 19 and 20 August
Arts & Crafts Fair (1920's style)
Thanks to last year's success, we can repeat this fair in the Marina urbanization of San Fulgencio (Alicante), with an atmosphere from the Roaring Twenties.
It is aimed at a family audience: we offer workshops for children, craft demonstrations, soap bubble shows and, of course!, our original Arts and Crafts.
We create a nostalgic atmosphere with our costumes, while The Red Velvets interpret songs in the style of the mythical The Andrews Sisters and The Nest Swing invites everybody to join them in their swing sessions.
The juggler with his period characters completes the programme and closes the fair at night with a fire show.
We are open from 7 pm to midnight or later, although on Sunday we close earlier.
The photographs on this page are from last year.
