Fuente Alamo fiestas to end on high note with concerts and soapbox races

The grand finale of Fuente Alamo's Fiestas Patronales de San Agustín comes to life from Friday, August 28 to Sunday, August 30. The festivities showcase religious traditions, energetic concerts, and eccentric local events that bring the town together in an unforgettable celebration.

Friday, August 28 marks the official Feast Day of San Agustin with a solemn Eucharist at noon. The evening procession honors the patron saint and his mother, Santa Mónica, ending with a spectacular fireworks display along the Paseo de la Rambla. The night shifts to musical entertainment, with Latin pop star Carlos Baute headlining a concert at 11:30pm on Calle Manuel de Falla, followed by late-night DJ sets at the Open Air Club.

On Saturday, August 29, the festivities continue with traditional rocket launches in the morning, creative children's workshops, and the highly anticipated XIII Copa San Agustín de Autos Locos soapbox car race in the afternoon. The streets remain lively with live music and DJ performances from local peñas and open-air venues throughout the night.

The festivities culminate on Sunday, August 30 with a tribute show, "Recordando a Nino Bravo," performed by Serafín Zubiri and the local Fuente Alamo Music Band. This moving performance brings generations together to sing along to classic hits as the community bids farewell to another fantastic year of Fuente Alamo's patron saint festivities.
