Approximately one million people attend the
festival.  It began as a cattle market in 1847
with tents erected for the selling of the
animals.

Nowadays, the tents are striped in bright colours
and inside there is music and dancing.  The
tents are called casetas (little houses).  Most
of the casetas are erected in an area of the
festival known as El Real de la Feria, and there
are around one thousand of them!

Every year, there is a temporary gateway to the
Feria, called La Portada.  Right are the
gateways of 2008 and 2009.  The gateway is
covered in electric light bulbs so that it is lit
up at night time.  For that reason, it is also
known as La Alumbrada, meaning 'the illuminated
one.'

The very first gateway to open the Seville Fair.

Each day there is a fairground known as 'the
street of hell'  (La Calle del Infierno), horse
parades, bull-fights, dancing and music, and
general merry-making!

fireworks.  The way to say 'fireworks' in Spanish
is 'los fuegos artificiales.It is well-known

dawn following a night at La Feria de Sevilla.
