The Almogía Almond Day will feature tastings, a market, and demonstrations today.

Almogía pays tribute to what was once one of its main sources of wealth next Sunday, September 28, with the celebration of Almond Day. The festival, now in its 19th edition, is declared of Provincial Touristic Uniqueness by the Malaga Provincial Council.

Starting at 11 AM, a market will open to the public featuring over fifty exhibitors from local businesses who will sell almonds and almond-based products, cheeses, cured meats, desserts, breads, and wines. Additionally, tastings of fried almonds, sweet wine, and ajoblanco will be offered. Meanwhile, the bars and restaurants in the municipality will feature special recipes with almonds as one of the main ingredients.

Throughout the day, traditional crafts such as leatherworking, esparto crafting, and those related to almonds, like hulling, splitting, and peeling, will be demonstrated. The program also includes two exhibitions: one on the process of harvesting and collecting almond fruits and another featuring paintings by local artist Isabel Arrabalí.

The celebration will be enlivened by the Raíces de Almogía verdiales band and the local verdiales school, the Nuestra Señora de la Asunción rociero choir, the bands Alejados and Electroduendes, and a DJ to close the evening. There will also be a children's area and animation workshops for the little ones.
