CAs everyone should know, next November 1st is All Saints' Day and, although Halloween gains a bit of prominence every year, the more traditional celebrations are still celebrated (luckily!). Okay, yes, at night many young people go out partying, many locals are decorated with pumpkins and people are dressed as zombie, ghost or witch. But during the day we do not see children knocking on the doors with the bag of goodies asking about "trick or treating?" ... At this point we have not arrived yet (nor do we have to).
Well, on October 31, for the Cadiz Market Festival is filled with people, food stalls, good humor and satire. If this year you are going to go or if you have never heard of it, keep reading and discover the originality of this Market Festival.
What does it consist of?
On October 31 the stalls of the Central Market and the Mercado Virgen del Rosario dress their products. what do I want to say with that? Well, in the meat stalls, the pigs and rabbits disguise themselves, in the vegetable stalls, puppets with fruits and vegetables are created, etc. Thus, each position tries to represent in a satirical and humorous way a current issue or event that happened during the year (in 2006, for example, a very popular one was the representation of Isabel Pantoja visiting Julián Muñoz in jail).
In this way, the positions that wish to do so are registered in the Job Exposition Contest of the municipal markets of the city. Subsequently, a jury is responsible for rewarding the three best positions in each category: Meat, Fish, Fruits, Vegetables and Miscellaneous.
In addition, for some years, there have also been some days on the markets and parties with conferences, audiovisuals and tastings, and for the little ones (and not so small) there are fun parades, flamenco performances, magic shows, etc.
It is expected that participation this year is very high, about 80 positions, so be prepared to do a bit of queuing. Of course, the wait is worth it ... because seeing the posts from the front row is the best.
Gastronomic tradition
As a good Andalusian party, traditional food could not miss, and is that with the excellent quality of local products is not for less.
For All Saints Cadiz ends the summer weather and is celebrated with the presentation of seasonal products: walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts, acerola, dried figs, oranges, sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes, custard apples, avocados, olives ... But that it is not all! The meat is also present: deer, pig, chicken, rabbit, partridge, lamb, kid, ... And neither could fish and seafood. In short, a wide variety of products and, obviously, of great quality.
If you prefer sweets, do not worry ... you will find saint's bones there (marzipan cakes with a cylindrical shape and filled with yolk candy), cider fritters or sweet potato paste, very popular as a dessert or snack.
If hunger is entering you already know what you have to do ... Pass the Puente Todos los Santos in Cádiz and enjoy the Fiesta de los Mercados.
What to see in Cádiz?
