Summer festivals

Concerts, bullfights, suelta de vaquillas (release of the bulls) and theatre are featured in the Summer festivals that take place in the month of July.

Along with the festive activities, Ávila becomes the backdrop for cultural events during summer, the programme Noches y Almenas (Nights and Battlements) takes place in the palaces and symbolic monuments of the city.

During the summer, the city hosts university extension courses from various universities and cultural foundations.

Craft Fair

Two craft fairs are held in the city, the first is the one in Avialfar, where potteres and ceramic artists show their work.

Adava organises the craft fair in August, in which any object, any material, becomes a unique work in the hands of the artisans.

In the same area and coinciding with the fair, other activities take place, with emphasis on workshops teaching craft techniques.
