Feliz February

Hey everyone! We’re super excited to kick off the new year and get back into the swing of things after the holiday season. This is our first newsletter in this format, and we really hope you enjoy it! We’d love your feedback, so feel free to let us know what you think or if there’s anything we missed or ideas we could include.

Now, let’s talk about all the exciting things happening this month—February is packed with incredible local and cultural events. First up, we have Carnaval and all the gastronomic festivals leading up to it—don’t miss out! It's an unforgettable experience, and the festive atmosphere around Cádiz is absolutely electric.

Also, we have the Flamenco Fashion Show, which I sadly won’t be able to attend this year, but you absolutely should! It’s so worth it, and while you’re there, make sure to enjoy a glass of sherry!

This month also marks the Festival de Jerez, a must-see event packed with flamenco shows, seminars, and workshops. If you’re in the area, I always recommend checking out the Villamarta Theatre—there's something magical about seeing a live performance there!

And don’t forget, we’re hosting our Carnaval Tour around Cádiz. Make sure to sign up and join us for an unforgettable experience!

There’s so much happening, and we can’t wait to share it with you. Don’t miss out on the magic of Cádiz in February!

We attended a show 2 years ago at the Villa Marta theatre. So Cool! I definitely recommend it if you are interested in Art, dance, Flamenco or want to dive into the local culture!
