Culture in Tarifa

Cultural life in Tarifa

There is more to Tarifa than only kitesurf contests.

Tarifa is booming with culture. Flamenco concerts are nothing rare here (Bar Almedina every thursday).
Of course most of the cultural highlights take place in the high season. In summer there is live music almost every day at Tanakas Plaza, right in front of the club Tanakas.

The premier time of cultural activities in Tarifa is the Feria in the first week of September.

This week is basically a week of holidays in Tarifa. Everyone parties until the early hours in the morning. Most of the shops close for this week.

The virgin of light, there patron saint of Tarifa is being carried through the streets and followed by more then 200 horses in traditional decoration.
