Masks Obligatory

As from 0000 Wednesday 15th July the wearing of masks will be required in all public places, punishable by a fine of up to €6,000.

This years Fiesta - Not Quite!

This week the Fiestas in Honor of the Virgen del Carmen would have taken place ... unfortunately, as you all know, this year we will not be able to enjoy the traditional Summer Fiestas that we like and enjoy so much. Even so, the Holy Mass of the day of the Virgin, will be celebrated next Thursday the 16th in the Plaza del Virgen del Carmen at 20:30 h. and this same day, in the same location at 22:30 h. there will be a performance of magic for all ages by ¨the Great Manley¨.
On Friday 17, at 22:00 h. The film “Aladdin” will be screened for free on the Giant Led screen on the esplanade of La Renfe!
* The activities will be organized following the established security protocols
* Mandatory use of masks. Don't forget yours!

Hopefully next year we can enjoy the festivities in our municipality normally and surrounded by our families and friends!

Friends of Zurgena Charity Concerts

Peter Dell who organises the concerts for the above charity has asked me to post this for your information.


We had really hoped to resume our events at the Renfe in Alfoquia at some point this summer but unfortunately, despite the easing of restrictions, we are unable to hold our events in the continuing Covid19 environment
Anyone who had purchased advance tickets for the Il Divo or Take That tribute shows can now obtain a refund from Monday the 13th of July at
La Bar Union in La Alfoquia between the hours 13:30 and 15:00 (Refunds will only be made on production of a valid ticket from the cancelled events)
Of course if you wish you may hold on to your original ticket and exchange it for a future event once we start again (put please still let us know if you would like to do this so we have a record) or please allow us to donate your refund straight to our local charities on your behalf
WE WILL put on future events as soon as it is safe for everyone to do so and we would like to thank everybody for their understanding in this matter. We hope to see you again and we can enjoy our future shows together very soon
