7th to 14th October Fiestas del Caldero in Los Alcázares
The Fiestas de octubre 2018 include "Caldero day" on the beach
Free music, Caldero on the beach, foam party and lots of family activites on the shore of the Mar Menor
Los Alcázares is once again holding its annual Fiestas of October, (also known as the Fiestas del Caldero) which include the Day of the Caldero when thousands of people take to the beach for a day of good food and socializing. There are also the institutional events surrounding the celebrations of the independence of the municipality, and lots of live music and entertainment, but the main attraction is an opportunity to sample the “caldero” fish and rice dish which is so typical of the Mar Menor and the surrounding areas.
The main venues for all of these events are the Plaza del Ayuntamiento and the Playa de la Pescadería (also known as Playa de Manzanares).
All of the activities listed below are free of charge.
The schedule of events programmed includes the following:
7th October
10:00 Club Naútico Mar Menor; Regatta
8th October; Día del Mayor; a day dedicated to adult pursuits!
