Contraband Festival starts this Friday in Alcoutim

Until Sunday, the main attraction will be the floating bridge, but there are many more activities in Alcoutim and Sanlúcar

O Smuggling Festival – Arts Traffic in the Guadiana begins this Friday, the 29th, at 14:30 pm, with the presence of Nelson de Souza, Minister of Planning, and Ângela Ferreira, Secretary of State for Culture.

The Governments of Spain and Andalusia will also be represented, in this case by Alejandro Romero Romero, vice councilor for Culture and Historical Heritage, and Bella Verano Domínguez, delegate of the Andalusian Government in Huelva.

Until Sunday, the big attraction will be the floating bridge, which crosses the Guadiana river and, during these days, connects Alcoutim to the other side, with Sanlúcar (and vice versa). The bridge opens this Friday at 15:00 pm (see opening hours below).

But the program offers much more, such as a period market, local cuisine, ethnographic parades, street theater, street music bands, craft workshops and lots of entertainment.

The third edition of the Festival of Contraband in Alcoutim (Portugal) and Sanlúcar de Guadiana (Spain) offers, until the 31st of March, days full of entertainment, history, arts and culture to all visitors.
