Virtual Artisan Village
Tibi (Alicante)
25 - 27 October
PLEASE NOTE: the rain forced us to close the fair at midday today (Sunday the 27th). We won't open in the afternoon. Sorry for any inconveniences.
Original Arts and Crafts Fair
For yet another year we will set up our craft stalls and a small tavern area on the Paseo La Santa in Tibi. We also offer workshops for children, craft demonstrations and traditional board games.
We count again on the participation of neighbours and local businesses from this charming village.
We open on Friday from 5:00 till 10:00 pm; Saturday and Sunday poening times are from 11 am till 2 pm and from 5 till 11 pm, although on Sunday we close a little earlier.
