23 and 24 November
Borgia Fair with original arts and crafts
For the first time we will set up our Arts and Crafts stalls in the square of the Town Hall (Plaça de la Vila) in this charming little village.
A few meters from the emblematic Gothic palace (Palacio de los Sanz) we offer workshops, craft demonstrations, parades on stilts and at night a great fire show. We decorate the square and dress in period costumes to complete the historical atmosphere of this small but select fair.
