Tango came to Santa Cruz on Sunday 19 March as part of the 29th International Tango Festival in Granada.  The show was entitled “Un Tango, por un poema: homenaje a Evaristo Carriego”. 

This year the Carnaval will be held on 26, 27 and 28 February and 3 March. The big finale is on the Sunday which falls six weeks before Easter Sunday, which this year is Sunday 5 March (Domingo de Piñata).

 After the success of the first edition last year, with 14 participants from 11 countries, the concejalía of Culture and Tourism organises the second edition of this event, aimed to strengthen ties and increase the presence of the international community in the activities organised by the Ayuntamiento de Alhama who would like the integration and participation of all citizens.

We present you with the English translation of Miguel Angel Santaella Leal speech presented during the XX evening "Alhama, City of Romances" on saturday 13 august 2016.

Saturday 13 August – 22 h – Plaza de los Presos, Alhama
“Somewhere in Granada, Alhama, commemorating Miguel de Cervantes and his passing through and writings about Alhama”.

 

They say a week is a long time in politics and this certainly was the case following the recent Referendum on the UK´s membership of the European Union (EU). 

 As the department of Culture and Tourism, on behalf of the Ayuntamiento of Alhama de Granada, we invite you to attend the first gathering of the Resident International Community in Alhama de Granada, which will take place on November 29th, 2015.
