The Action's in Tents

Well in one tent to be exact, the Marquee erected in San Antonio's main square. By a stroke of genius, some say luck, San Antonio's Patron Saint's day falls in January, and so the festivities for Christmas, New Year, and the Three Kings roll seamlessly into it.

This year the programme of entertainment and events runs right up to the 1st of February and includes: theatrical works, musical concerts and dancing, a barbecue, folklore festivals, the blessing of the animals, the kite flying day, the walk to Santa Ines, and the Valencian community's exhibition of food and folklore.

And if all that wasn't enough there's even a Mexican festival and a performance by a Spanish classical ballet company. Who says nothing happens in San An in winter?
