Isdabe Fair and Festival
Three days of neighbourhood fiesta in Isdabe: verbena, music and community celebration around the feast of Saint James (Santiago Apóstol).
This edition took place in 2026. The event is held every year in Estepona.Every year around the feast of Saint James (25 July) — organised by the Santiago Apóstol residents' association.
From 24 to 26 July, the Isdabe neighbourhood celebrates its annual fair and festival, organised by the Santiago Apóstol residents' association. Friday night opens with a verbena; Saturday's activity runs through day and night; Sunday closes with a community morning gathering.
Like the Cancelada festival, this is a neighbourhood celebration rather than an event designed for visitors — but that's exactly what makes it worth knowing about: a side of Estepona beyond the old town and the seafront, with its own rhythm and its own people.
