LEIVA FIESTA- JULY

An exhibition of old agricultural and household implements  is one of the biggest events in a comprehensive programme that has been made possible thanks to the collaboration of the Neighborhood Association Virgen del Carmen. The exhibition will be opened by the Mayor of Mazarrón, Francisco Garcia, on Friday July 11.

Salvadora Gallego will open the festivities with his proclamatio the same day. Born in Leiva but living for many years in Mallorca. After the proclamation, election of the Fiesta Queen will take place.

This year the presentation of the meeting will be provided by crews Marcos Salvador, who was Commissioner for Murcia in the Seville Expo of 1992 and currently works for the daily newspaper La Opinión and Onda Regional de Murcia.

A large piñata, Sevillanas performances, Migas competitions, giant paella and humorous performances complete the programme of festivities up until  Wednesday July 16 when Mass will be held in honour of the Patron's Virgen del Carmen. At its conclusion, a plaque to honour the elderly Leiva neighbour will be presented to Francisco López Muñoz "El Chiquillo."


Further information and a detailed programme will be posted when received from the Town Hall
