Feria de la Manzanilla
Location: Sanlúcar de Barrameda
Dates: 31 May - 5 June
This is a little coast town where the Guadalquivir meets the Atlantic ocean. The festival is the town's Feria, with plenty of manzanilla to drink, Sevillanas to dance and of course a lot of food, especially seafood. You'll find all of the activity not far from the beaches on Avenida Amarilla.

Cines de Verano
Locations: Patio de la Diputación; Universidad de Sevilla
Dates: 4 Jul - 17 Sep (22:30 start time)
A cheap way to enjoy a movie (3€), with recent releases in Patio de la Diputación and a mix at the University, with themes cased on actors and directors such as Pual Newman or Steve Soe. All in an outdoor setting complete with a bar, popcorn, hot dogs, sandwiches, tapas, beer and drinks. Cines de verano, what amounts to an outdoor screening, are a part of summer in Seville. I really love these and the ability to get up and stretch your legs without missing any of the action. It's like a drive-in without the cars.



Noches de verano en el Palacio de la Buhaira
Location: Palacio de la Buhaira
Dates: 21 June - 2 September
Now in it's forth year, Noches de verano en el Palacio de la Buhaira offers a little more variety than the Alcazar series. There is everything from productions of Carmen to greek tragedies, a little flamenco, acoustic concerts and more. All on the grounds of the Palace in the Buhaira Gardens about 5-10 minutes from Santa Cruz. This is a great way to escape the heat of the city center. Prices are from 10-12 Euros with start times for events at 22:00.

Cine de Verano - 21 Grados
Location: CICUS - Calle Madre de Dios, 1
Dates: 18 June - 23 August
There are a few cines de verano in Sevilla with some of the most popular showing more recent films. The series by CICUS (Cultural project run by the University of Seville) is a little different - films are every Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday nights at 22:30 in the patio of the building. The films selected are a good mix of the classics as well as some films from the last 20 years such as Reservoir Dogs. Best of all it's free. The complete schedule of events at CICUS can be found on their web site.


Corpus Christi
Location: Plaza San Francisco and city center
Dates: 23 June
Altars are set up around the center streets while storefronts and balconies are decorated the days before, in this celebration of the Eucharist. A large gate, or puerta, is erected in Plaza San Francisco for the processions to pass by a large altar. The day of Corpus Christi there is an early morning "parade" from the Cathedral through Plaza San Francisco. Images of saints followed by La Custodia, a central part of the Catholic communion, make up the procession. Photos

 




Feria de San Juan de Aznalfarache
Location: San Juan de Aznalfarache
Dates: June 23-27
We should never forget about all the little ferias throughout Andalucia, or Spain for that matter. While maybe not the most popular of the celebrations in and around Sevilla the Feria de San Juan de Aznalfarache should be interesting with concerts, a couple of nights featuring a giant paella, a car and motorcycle rally as well as a fishing contest on the Guadalquivir. Of course every day there will be plenty to eat and drink. Top it all off with fireworks on the last day!
