Orihuela City

The Gabriel Miró Roundabout will be the hub of the action, featuring craft, slime and face painting workshops, as well as inflatable attractions. The evening will kick off at 8pm with a parade through the streets of Orihuela, featuring drum bands, dance groups and plenty of spooky costumes.

In addition, a special Halloween train will depart from Duque de Tamamés - Gabriel Miró Avenue at 5pm and travel through the streets of the city, adding to the festive atmosphere.
