Romeria de San Sebastion, 2024
 The Romeria de San Sebastian takes place in Conil de la Frontera annually on the third Sunday in January. The icon of San Sebastian is carried from the Parish Church of San Sebastian in the town   in cart drawn by two bulls to El Colarado where previously a hermitage was .  This Romeria has its origins in the 16th century but fell into oblivion when the hermitage deteriorated.  The Romeria was revived in the 1980s and now is very popular with 20,0000 annually in the procession.  When the Romeria reaches the pines of Roche it is now traditional for  families to have a picnic.   The Spanish Catholics have a special way of mixing religious fervour with traditional culture and great fun. It really is something unique and simply quite wonderful.
