The first week of September in Almáchar is the Fiesta del Ajoblanco.
The Fiesta del Ajoblanco attracts around 10,000 people each year and has been declared a ‘festival of national tourist interest’.
Around 2,000 litres of ajoblanco (a sort of broth) are on offer as well as grapes, raisins and, naturally, plenty of Muscatel wine.
At 21:00 it is time for the Noche Flamenca.
From midnight, it becomes party time with a concert, dancing, sangria and tapas. And everything is free!
