During the Feria de Abril Seville, there are suggestive scenographies, great shows, and parades. And a particularly cheerful and partying atmosphere, with lots of people dancing in the street.
Naturally, who has the opportunity, can not miss a visit to booths. This is the place where the fair is lived; a family space, in which friends, relatives and guests are welcomed with the typical products of the land, and where wine is drunk, sang, chat and, of course, dance the sevillana.
Most of the Casetas, are private homes, which are accessed only by direct invitation via an acquaintance; you will still be able to access many free Casetas, inside the fair grounds. In general, they are the tents of political parties.

In our opinion, the Feria de Abril Seville is the right opportunity to discover this wonderful city. Seeing is believing.
