Free street theatre and circus acts in San Pedro Alcántara

After roaring success with the local community in 2024, San Pedro Alcántara will celebrate its Performing Arts Month from July 31 to August 20, offering free, family-friendly outdoor performances in public spaces. Wilbur will headline the festival, who is a comedian and star of Spanish TV show Grand Prix.

The event was described as an “important fixture on the local calendar of culture, with a varied programme of theatre and circus, dance and flamenco performances, and live musical performances” which “invigorate and strengthen the cultural identity and community through accessible, high-quality, outdoor performances.” The Andalusian Theatre Public Network is responsible for the event.

The festival kicks off on July 31 at 8.30pm with Kimera by La Banda Teatro Circo at the Las Cañas del Bulevar Monument. On August 7 at 10pm, Empaque by Chicharrón, a mix of flamenco and circus, will take place at the Bulevar amphitheatre. Urban dance by Mariana Collado and Lucio Baglivo (Butaca 13 Producciones) follows on August 3 at 8.30pm at the Paseo Marítimo near La Salida beach. On August 20 at 8.30pm, Curolles will perform Tot Bé, featuring a unique spinning top act, at Plaza de la Libertad. Plan A. Producciones will close the festival on August 26, at 8:30pm, with Piensa En Wilbur at Bulevar Amphitheatre. All shows are free to the public.
