BULLAS MARKET AND "TAPAS ROUTE". SEPTEMBER 4TH

This coming Sunday, September 4, and every first Sunday of the month, the traditional Market of The Zacatín in Bullas takes place, and this month you can enjoy the traditional demonstration of different jobs in textiles.


The environment of the central Old Town Square and the Castle is the setting for a demonstration of the local group of bobbin lace, accompanied by lace from different parts of the Northwest region. On the other hand, you can watch demonstrations of embroidery skirts by Lorca craftsmen, whose reputation in this art is deservedly popular, and finally you can see the exhibitions of weaving and the spinning wheel, with printing, silk fabrics and paintings, all carried out by the skilled hands of the artisans at the market.

In addition, you can enjoy the rich local gastronomy, by way of The Tapas and Cocktail Route….for only 2 euros you can take a tapas and drink in any of the 36 participating establishments. This takes place between August 19 and will end on September 18.

The tourist information point which is located at the Bullas market will continue to offer information on local tourism, including the wine route. This weekend there is a special event in the hamlet of La Copa de Bullas, which is held from 2 to 6 September. Their festivities honor Our Lady of Consolation and Our Lady of Perpetual Help. And as in every one of the Bullas markets, you can take advantage of the free guided tours of the Ruta Modernista(Modern Route)
