We'll be in Sevilla the first weekend of May and found out that our first day in the city is also the last day of what seems to be the big 'ferias de abril' (we already found the hotel to be expensive that day; now we know why....).
As we're there anyway, we'd like to grasp the opportunity and see what's going on, but we don't seem to be able to find a program of the festivities or so...
So we're now wondering : is it a normal fun-fair without special events or is something interesting taking place ? Any idea where we can have a look at the programm (if there is one ?)
no general advice ,but ,we went to the lovely Seville when the feria was on and we had a ball,try to blag your way into a tent if you can ,unfortunately we didn't.have a great time.
just type feria de april in google and theres loads of info.

I like this neutral article about Feria de Abril.

Also, I agree with it. I felt pretty much the same, while I was there last year.
It is very well organized, but it is easy to feel an outsider...
How to reach the feria area from city center?

PLAZA DE ESPAÑA
Representative of much of the regional architecture, this magnificent construcion is highlighted with polychromatic ceramic tiles. The semicircular plaza has a diametre of two hundred metres and is flanked by two spectacular towers and a bordering lake that are especially worth seeing.
Plaza de España has been one of the sceneries for episode II of George Lucas' STAR WARS saga: Attack of the clones Picture take from

History has shaped Sevilla into a colorful tapestry of varying architectural styles. Once inhabited by the Romans and later held by the Moors, Sevilla benefited from many cultural influences that are evidenced today by sights like this Mudejar tower. I enjoyed being able to see classical Greek columns, Baroque facades and Moorish arches all within five minutes of each other on the streets of Sevilla.
If you are in Seville you might want to send a postcard to friends or family. Maybe to show them how wonderful the city is, or just to make them jealous.
In this case you need the services of the Correos, the spanish postal services. Their colors are yellow and blue. Their website: http://www.correos.es is in spanish only.
Stamps required for mailing postcards or letters are sold at Postoffices and outlets known as estancos (establishments authorised to sell tobacco, stamps and seals)
I don't think all of Spain is like this, but I definitely noticed it in Seville. If you don't flag a waiter down and ask for a check at the end of your meal, you will probably end up sitting there forever. Throughout Western Europe, there is a relaxed attitude about eating, and you are rarely encouraged to leave your table quickly after a meal, but it is more pronounced here.
Having re-charged the old batteries continue the Camino and walk to Lubian -- 31.2k -- refugio
We are now getting into the foothills and the way is more undulating
