But that's not all, as in any great fair, there will also be a large multi-sector market where, as well as the finest cheeses from all over Spain, you can find a variety of handicrafts and enjoy yourself in the canteens. Be sure to try the craft beers and grilled lamb. And as there's no party without music, you'll also find free concerts and musical performances.
