menu: bullfighting shows, tastings of regional products in the&nbsp;<em>casetas<\/em>, large striped canvas tents, and Sevillian dances, of course.&nbsp;The entry to where festivities are held is decorated with thousands of lights.&nbsp;The Feria is an essential moment of the year for all the locals.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img
