The fair in Málaga 2007
There are still over two months left for the Feria of Malaga that will take place from the 11th to the 19th of August so everybody is getting ready for “fiesta” dancing and getting together with friends. You can go for a stroll at the fairgrounds or around the city centre.
The language academies of Malaga have many inscriptions and reservations made for August and we cannot avoid thinking that the main reason is the Fair of Malaga that is nestled in the heart of the locals as well as of the foreign visitors who year after year come back for more.
We inevitably must work in summer, the Fair allows us to have a “breather” because many students do not come to class on time and this lets us have a more relaxed atmosphere in class.
Also hotels, inns and hostels are sometimes booked due to Feria week, so much so that later in the month it is practically impossible to find a room at a reasonable price. Most hostels have their “no vacancy” sign up from the first day of Feria.
We still don’t know what it will be like this year, nor which artists will act, nor who will be the matadors that will fight the bulls in the Malagueta, but we do know that this year “MTV Malaga Summer” will take place again as part of the inauguration of the Feria. After the renowned success of last year’s show with the participation of Paulina Rubio, Enrique Iglesias and Pignoise; the City Council of Malaga has decided to repeat it because of all the news that it brought to Malaga last year. The show was broadcasted to many different countries like Russia, Finland, Germany, U.S.A. and Latin America.
We all hope that in 2007 we can obtain the same results as for the previous year. We aslso hope that Malaga and its Feria will continue to be our reference within Andalusia with its rich culture, gastronomy and folklore.
