The booths for the Marchena Fair are already being set up.

Assembly is officially underway, with this year’s Marchena Fair taking place from August 26th to 30th. I always update this page, which features the current dates every year alongside all the reports I’ve put together since 2017. (only the spanish version).

And just as the fair is right around the corner, there’s only a month left until the feast day of the Virgen de los Remedios. Next up will be the Divina Pastora, and rumor has it that this year there will be a joint procession featuring Saint Francis of Assisi and our patron saint, the Virgen del Rosa r io. This special occasion marks the 800th anniversary of the death of Saint Francis of Assisi as well as the 300th anniversary of the privileges granted by Pope Benedict XIII for the procession of Nuestra Señora del Rosario. Later on, the Virgen del Pilar will take to the streets on Columbus Day (Día de la Hispanidad), October 12th—a date that marks 534 years since Christopher Columbus arrived in the Americas.

The Miss Universe season is also kicking off, with this year’s pageant scheduled for November 24th in Puerto Rico.

Still, my absolute favorite Miss Universe moment has always been, and will always be, this one from 2021. For her reaction, that stunning hair, and above all, the incredible answer she gave:

I know this post is a bit of an eclectic mix, but everything has its reason.
