🟢 ANDALUCÍA REGIONAL BANK HOLIDAY

📅 28 February – Andalucía Day

Andalucía Day is one of the most important public holidays in southern Spain, celebrated every year on 28 February. The day marks the 1980 referendum in which Andalucía voted for full autonomy, securing its status as an autonomous community within Spain.

🇪🇸 What Is Andalucía Day?

Andalucía Day commemorates regional identity, culture, and self-government. It is a celebration of Andalusian history, traditions, and pride — and a day when the region comes together to honour its unique character.

🎉 How It’s Celebrated

Across Andalucía, towns and cities mark the day with:

Official ceremonies and flag-raising events
School activities focused on Andalusian history

Cultural performances, music, and flamenco

Community gatherings and local festivities
A traditional part of the day is eating bread with olive oil (and often sugar), especially in schools and family homes — a symbol of Andalucía’s agricultural roots and world-famous olive oil production.

🏛️ What’s Open and Closed?

Banks, government offices, and many businesses are closed
Supermarkets and tourist-focused businesses may operate reduced hours
Public transport usually runs on a holiday or Sunday schedule
Visitors and residents are advised to plan ahead, especially for appointments or official paperwork.

📍 Where to Go on Andalucía Day

It’s a great day to explore:
Historic city centres like Seville, Córdoba, Málaga, and Granada
White villages (Pueblos Blancos) across Cádiz and Málaga provinces
Coastal promenades on the Costa del Sol, Costa Tropical, and Costa de la Luz
Local restaurants and cafés, many of which embrace the festive atmosphere
Museums and cultural venues often host special events or free entry.

🌞 Why It Matters

Andalucía Day is more than a day off — it’s a reminder of the region’s strong identity, deep history, and cultural richness. For expats and visitors, it’s a perfect opportunity to experience Andalucía at its most authentic.

Tonights Panto! ❤

Due to a red alert weather warning issued by the Junta de Andalucia, the theatre has made the difficult decision to cancel tonight’s (Sunday 4th at 7pm) performance. 🛟

The priority is to keep the cast, crew, staff and patrons of the theatre safe, and reducing unnecessary travel till the rain stops.

So as not to miss out on this fantastic pantomime, anyone with a ticket for tonight is invited to swap their tickets for tomorrow’s matinee instead (which is the last performance of this year's pantomime).

BUT, we do need you to let us know if you would like to swap your ticket and come tomorrow instead, since we have limited seats left for tomorrow. Direct Message us NOW, or email us on [email protected].

If you cannot make tomorrow's Matinee at 2pm, let us know also by email and we will advise on options and refunds.

Please confirm with you as soon as possible and stay safe. 🎭
