Regional cultural festivals held in Cútar and Huelva

Various regional cultural celebrations are taking place in Spain. In Cútar, the XXII Fiesta del Monfí is being held from October 2 to 4, recreating the town's Andalusian past. The event features an Andalusian souk, cultural activities, and gastronomy, including dishes like couscous and tajine. The program includes the inauguration of a statue dedicated to Muhammad al-Yayyar and a series of historical conferences.

In the Sierra de Huelva, the town of Cumbres Mayores is celebrating the traditional Candelorios in honor of San Miguel Arcángel. This ritual involves lighting large bonfires in various town squares, a practice passed down through generations. The event combines community gathering, traditional music, and dances, with participants historically using the embers to prepare for the autumn cold.
