The Huelva Horse Fair: Bigger and Better than Ever
The Huelva Horse Fair is one of the most anticipated events on the city’s calendar. Every year, locals and visitors look forward to this celebration that combines Andalusian tradition with a passion for horses. This year, the Horse Fair is set to be even bigger and more exciting than ever. In this article, we’ll explore the exciting changes and improvements taking place at the Huelva Horse Fair 2023.
Exceptional growth
One of the most notable developments this year at the Feria del Caballo will be the extraordinary growth it has experienced. The number of booths has doubled from 20 to 40, marking a milestone in the history of this emblematic event in Huelva. This growth is testament to the community's appreciation and passion for this celebration.
The Department of Infrastructure and Public Services of the Huelva City Council has been working hard to respond to this expansion. The Councillor responsible for the Area, Mariló Ponce, has stated that their objective is to "upgrade the infrastructure and expand the services in the Zafra park area to facilitate the new additions."
New Booths and Spaces
The expansion of the Horse Fair includes the installation of new stalls in the space occupied last year by the central arena that used to be used for equestrian exhibitions. These exhibitions will now be moved to the back of the park, next to the facilities of the Port of Huelva. This change allows attendees to enjoy the exhibitions in a larger and more comfortable environment.
In addition, works will be carried out to supply the new modules with sanitation and water supply services. The electrical network throughout the site will also be reinforced, thus ensuring the comfort and safety of all participants.
Extended Dates
Another exciting aspect of the 2023 Huelva Horse Fair is that it has been extended by one more day. Instead of the usual three days, the fair will take place from October 12 to 15 at the Parque Alcalde Juan Ceada Infantes, popularly known as Parque de Zafra. This means more time to enjoy the culture, music, food and, of course, the horses.
A Special Previous Experience
To kick off this long-awaited celebration, the Huelva City Council has planned a special pre-event experience. On October 11, in the Parque de las Palomas, a Sevillanas Festival will be held. This festival will feature Huelva groups and will serve as a prelude to the Horse Fair, in a unique opportunity to enjoy traditional Andalusian music and dance.
Intensive Preparations
The expansion of the Huelva Horse Fair is not limited to the addition of stalls. The Huelva City Council will also prepare an area of approximately 10,000 square meters for the equestrian exhibition arena. In addition, the interior walkways for horse riding will be improved. These improvements will ensure that visitors have a comfortable and memorable experience.
Conclusion
The Huelva Horse Fair has become an exceptional event that you will never want to miss again. With the significant increase in the number of booths, the expansion of the facilities and additional programming, this fair is the must-see event in October in Huelva. The Alcalde Juan Ceada Infantes park will be the epicenter of fun, culture and Andalusian tradition. Make sure to attend this unique celebration and enjoy everything that the Huelva Horse Fair has to offer.
