The old Town Hall Square at the top of Salobreña was the venue for a concert of brass bands; i.e., bandas de musica during the weekend of the 4th/5th.
The Councillor for Popular Traditions, Sandra Jimena, has thanked visitors and residents for the ‘massive turn out’ for the San Isidro Romería. And it was massive when you consider that over 150 horsemen and 100 horse carriages and decked out vehicles, as well as seven ox-drawn carts took part.
The Romeria del Sur took place in Salobreña with 48 highly decorated floats/carts taking part. There were no incidents with the horses, as they were denied access to the beach area, as mentioned in the previous Seaside Gazette article on the event.
The Romeria del Sur has been held in Salobreña for the last 50 years and each year the town is full of colourful horse carriages and proudly rode horses – just was a romeria should be… but not this year.
