Águilas presents 2027 Carnival poster well in advance!

Preparations are already under way in Águilas for the biggest Carnival fiesta in the Region of Murcia

We are still a good six weeks away from Christmas and many shops in Spain haven’t even started selling decorations, having only just cleared away all the Halloween costumes and bric-a-brac, but in Águilas in the south-west of Murcia preparations are already under way for the 2027 Carnival in February.

The official poster for the festivities, which are by far the most spectacular in the Region of Murcia and among the best-known in the whole of Spain, was presented in the first week of November and is the work of local artist Felipe Juan Ruiz Romera, who has titled it “Cuando el bosque se disfraza”. Over twenty works were submitted for consideration, and the other finalists were “Hechizo”, by Estefanía Haro, and “Sueños de Musa”, by Miguel Ángel Fernández.
