Overview
- Seville’s Feria de Abril, which opened Monday night with the Pescaíto dinner and the midnight lighting, now spans more than 1,000 casetas and keeps centuries-old buñuelo stands through Sunday.
- Left-wing leaders María Jesús Montero, Antonio Maíllo and José Ignacio García used the Real on Tuesday to press their messages to voters ahead of Andalusia’s May 17 election.
- Andalusia’s president Juanma Moreno visited the fair on Wednesday, praised its global pull and cited more than three million yearly visitors in remarks at the PP’s caseta.
- In Villalar on Thursday, the 50th local anniversary of Castilla y León Day drew about 20,000 people by lunchtime under a 500-person security plan that included Guardia Civil units and a helicopter.
- Speeches in Villalar fixated on Vox’s “national priority” idea, which PSOE figures including Carlos Martínez, Ana Redondo, Óscar Puente and Patxi López condemned, while regional leader Alfonso Fernández Mañueco said he would detail any pact once it is signed.
