Fair of May - Turismo Lora del Río

Almost 200 years old, the Lora del Río Fair is brimming with tradition. Twenty four stands with an unbeatable location and a stunning horse ride, make the Lora’s fair one of the most attractive in the province.

The fair is celebrated during the last Thursday of the month of May until Sunday.

Until the 18th century, the Lora del Río Fair was celebrated on the day of the Patroness, Our Lady of Setefilla, that is, on September 8, and it was celebrated in the portals and around the church.

It was around 1819 when the first edition of the Fair or Livestock Market was held, in the current enclave, Alameda del Río.

We suggest that you arrive around 15.30 in the afternoon in order to enjoy the horse ride in the Real. At the end of the afternoon our booths offer live music with flamenco groups that enliven the evening and will make you want to dance endlessly. If you have the opportunity, go to one of them and enjoy. After hours of dancing “rumbas”, “sevillanas” and contemporary music it will be the time to head home and recover the energy that your body needs to do it all over again the next day.

Children and teenagers have a space at the end of the enclosure in which they can have fun with many attractions. During these four days all the town of Lora as well as the visitors have fun and fraternize.

For the delight of all our visitors, different “sevillanas” and horse competitions are held in different stands.
