This year marks the 300th anniversary of the completion of the Salvador Church and as a tribute it will be the subject of this year’s Feria portada, still under construction.

According to Seville mayor Juan Ignacio Zoido, the idea is to show that Semana Santa and the Feria de Abril – Seville’s two largest festivals – are not incompatible. Images symbolising the 20th anniversary of Expo 92 will also be depicted on the facade of the portada.

On the right you can see the winner of this year’s Spring Festivals poster competition, created by Antonio Parilla.
