There are many religious festivities, the fabulous Holy Week in Velez Malaga being the one not to be missed.


The romerias are also a way to soak up and live to the rhythm of the local culture.

The most famous festival in the province is the one in Frigiliana: Festival of the 3 cultures in Frigiliana. I think it is the most beautiful and authentic festival in Andalucia. A photo below of this festival:
