The event will begin on Saturday, with muleteers receiving €10 per registered mule and the photography competition set to kick off at 10:30am. The traditional demonstration, featuring loading, grooming, and shoeing of the animals, will commence at noon, followed by a communal lunch of migas at 2pm, with donations supporting social causes in Arenas. Live music will fill the air from 3pm, with performances by Leo, Elisa Ariza, El Mauro, and more, culminating in Muladance at 11.45pm. Sunday's festivities will shift towards flamenco, featuring Cristina Gallardo's dance academy and a tribute to rural women before Aire Flamenco concludes the night. A Mulabus service will connect Arenas to nearby towns on Monday, offering free rides for visitors. The fair's primary focus is to celebrate the mule's vital role in the region's agricultural practices, particularly during the challenging Moscatel grape harvest.",
