The colour of its parades and the music are outstanding.
In October, Crevillent, in the province of Alicante, celebrates its Moors and Christians fiesta in honour of its patron saint, Francis of Assisi. The fiesta is packed with parades, colour, music and fun, filling every corner of the town with joy.
A total of 12 groups (6 for the Moors and 6 for the Christians) take part in the festivities commemorating the fall of Moorish Crevillent to the Crown of Aragon.
Very interesting
