Cancelada Village Festival
Every August, the Cancelada neighbourhood celebrates its own local festival with activities, concerts and entertainment for all ages.
The Cancelada neighbourhood, within the municipality of Estepona, holds its own local festival every August. The programme includes entertainment, concerts and events for all ages over several days.
Neighbourhood festivals like this one have a different character to the main events in the town centre: they are residents' celebrations, with strong local participation, offering a glimpse of an Estepona that most visitors never reach.
